Why do I know a few more things? Why am I so clever altogether? I have never reflected on questions that are none — I have not squandered myself. The first three chapters of Nietzsche's autobiography and his final work before he descended into madness. Critics argue whether the megalomaniacal titles of the chapters are reflective of Nietzsche's humility as a philosopher and his ironic use of autobiography, or whether they betray that his insanity began earlier than previously thought. It is one of 46 new books in the bestselling Little Black Classics series, to celebrate the first ever Penguin Classic in 1946. Each book gives readers a taste of the Classics' huge range and diversity, with works from around the world and across the centuries — including fables, decadence, heartbreak, tall tales, satire, ghosts, battles and elephants.

Автор: John Le Carre Издательство: Penguin Group, 2016 |
PDF, 496 страниц, 14.88 МБ
|
At the start of it all, Jonathan Pine is merely the night manager at a luxury hotel. But when a single attempt to pass on information to the British authorities — about an international businessman at the hotel with suspicious dealings — backfires terribly, and people close to Pine begin to die, he commits himself to a battle against powerful forces he cannot begin to imagine. In a chilling tale of corrupt intelligence agencies, billion-dollar price tags and the truth of the brutal arms trade, John le Carre creates a claustrophobic world in which no one can be trusted.
