Friedrich Nietzsche


Book Description

“An accessible, anecdotally rich” biography of the profoundly influential 19th century philosopher, author of Beyond Good and Evil and The Will to Power (Kirkus Reviews). Friedrich Nietzsche was the most fearlessly provocative and original thinker in Western history. The protean diversity of his writings make him one of the most influential of modern philosophers, yet his often paradoxical statements can be properly understood only within the context of his restless, tragic life. Physically handicapped by weak eyesight, violent headaches and bouts of nausea, this Nietzsche made short shrift of self-pity and ostentatious displays of compassion. The son of a Lutheran clergyman, whom he adored, he became a fearless agnostic who proclaimed, in Thus Spake Zarathustra that “God is dead!” Curtis Cate’s refreshingly accessible new biography brilliantly distills and clarifies Nietzsche’s ideas and the reactions they elicited. This book explores the musical and philosophical influences that inspired his thought, the subtle workings of his creative process, and the acute physical suffering he combated from his adolescence until his final mental collapse of January 1889. Cutting through the academic jargon and clearing away the prejudices that have become associated with Nietzsche’s name, Cate reveals a man whose ideas continue to have prophetic relevance and incredible vibrancy today.

So Obsessed With a Brooklyn Boss 3


Book Description

Moe and the crew are back in the final installment of the Dirty Money Saga for one final heist where they have the opportunity to get rich or die trying. No matter how much dirty money she has chased, no dollar amount has ever filled the void in her heart the way Savant has. He's the Prince Charming that she's always imagined taking her away from her troubled life and giving her the normalcy she deserves. However, Moe finds that the fairytale life she envisions won’t happen when two old ghosts reenter Savant’s life: his treacherous ex-girlfriend, Nik, and the very slick Kasiim. Between Nik’s desire to stir the pot and Kasiim luring Savant back into his fast lifestyle, every step forward Moe and Savant takes comes with four drama filled steps back. Moe finds herself constantly questioning Savant’s loyalty to her, and their relationship is tested when a huge family secret threatens everything they’ve built. As if her life wasn’t difficult enough, Moe's mother, Deborah, reenters with the intentions of spilling secrets and reigniting old grudges. Like any hustler, Deborah’s silence comes with a price, and Moe has to make the decision to pay...or make her go away for free. Since the reformed life doesn’t offer a large enough payout, Moe rejoins Poochie and the team for the planning of one last heist that can set them up for life, or have them doing twenty-five to life.

In the finale of So Obsessed with a Brooklyn Boss, allegiances change, loyalties are tested, and love comes with a price at the pursuit of dirty money.
