Synopsis

In "Thus Spoke Zarathustra," Friedrich Nietzsche artfully intertwines philosophy and prose within a lyrical narrative structure. This work embraces the character of Zarathustra, who descends from the mountains to share his profound insights on morality, religion, and the human condition. Nietzsche employs a poetic style that oscillates between parable and aphorism, presenting his ideas on concepts such as the √úbermensch and the eternal recurrence. The book stands as a transformative text that critiques traditional norms, encouraging readers to reclaim individuality and creativity amidst the rigid frameworks of contemporary society. Friedrich Nietzsche, a pivotal figure in the realm of existential and postmodern thought, penned this seminal work during a pivotal period of intellectual upheaval in the late 19th century. His own struggles with health, belief systems, and societal expectations shaped his philosophies, leading him to advocate for the reevaluation of all values. Nietzsche's experiences as a classical philologist and his engagement with various philosophical traditions provided a rich backdrop for the spiritual and existential explorations found in Zarathustra. This book is highly recommended for readers seeking a deeper understanding of Nietzsche's radical philosophy and its enduring impact on modern thought. "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" challenges us to confront our limitations and reimagine our potential, making it an essential read for those intrigued by the intersections of philosophy, literature, and the quest for meaning.

    How dull plays are killing theatre and what we can do about it.
    		 
    Had I become disenchanted with the form I had once fallen so madly in love with as a pubescent, pimple-faced suburban homo with braces? Maybe theatre was like an all-consuming high school infatuation that now, ten years later, I saw as the closeted balding guy with a beer gut he’d become. There were of course those rare moments of transcendencethat kept me coming back. But why did they come so few and far between?
    		 
    A lot of plays are dull. And one dull play, it seems, can turn us off theatre for good. Playwright and theatre director Jordan Tannahill takes in the spectrum of English-language drama – from the flashiest of Broadway spectacles to productions mounted in scrappy storefront theatres – to consider where lifeless plays come from and why they persist. Having travelled the globe talking to theatre artists, critics, passionate patrons and the theatrically disillusioned, Tannahill addresses what he considers the culture of ‘risk aversion’ paralyzing the form.
    		 
    Theatre of the Unimpressed is Tannahill’s wry and revelatory personal reckoning with the discipline he’s dedicated his life to, and a roadmap for a vital twenty-first-century theatre – one that apprehends the value of ‘liveness’ in our mediated age and the necessity for artistic risk and its attendant failures. In considering dramaturgy, programming and alternative models for producing, Tannahill aims to turn theatre from an obligation to a destination.

    Is it possible to renew the mind? - 24 May 1967 
    • When the mind is living through imagination and thought, it is incapable of 
    living in the complete fullness of the present. 
    • Thought has created time, not chronological time but psychological time. That 
    is, ‘I will be,’ ‘I should be.’ 
    • Is it possible for the brain to be quiet, to give an interval between the old and 
    the new? This interval is the timeless nature in which thought cannot possibly 
    enter. 
    • That which has continuity is repetitive, which is time. It’s only when time 
    comes to an end there is something new taking place. 
    • To die every day to every problem, every pleasure, and not carry over any 
    problem at all; so the mind remains tremendously attentive, active, clear. 
    • Since love is not desire or pleasure, how does one come upon it? 
    • Q: Is the feeling of responsibility a part of the order and discipline you were 
    talking about? 
    • Q: Why don’t people get angry with what you are saying?

    Asa Mulvaney is half of a psychopathic whole. He and his twin brother live together, party together…kill together. In the Mulvaney family, murder is the family business and business is good. So, when an experiment separates Asa and his brother, Asa is forced to navigate the world on his own for the first time in his life. 
    Zane Scott is a small-time crime blogger, but he dreams of a byline in a major paper and his suspicions surrounding Thomas Mulvaney are about to make that dream a reality. When an invitation to a boring fundraiser lands him not beside Thomas, as he had hoped, but Asa Mulvaney, they share an intensely passionate encounter that leaves Zane trapped in a cage of his own making. 
    At a nearby college, a cluster of suicides isn’t what it seems. When Asa’s father asks him to look into it, he sees the perfect opportunity to exploit his little crime reporter and make him fall in line. And Asa needs him to fall in line. Zane is suspicious of Asa’s motives and half-convinced he’s dead either way, but he won’t say no to a chance to peek behind the Mulvaney family curtains. 
    As the two unravel a sinister plot, Asa’s obsession with Zane grows and Zane finds being Asa’s sole focus outweighs almost anything, maybe even his career—which is good for Asa because loving a Mulvaney is a full-time job. Can he convince Zane that he’s worth navigating a family of psychopaths and tolerating an almost too close for comfort twin? Or will Zane learn the hard way that the Mulvaney boys always get what they want? Always.
