First published in France in 1929 but only now translated into English, this short biography covers Nietzsche’s many visits to Italy and his relationship with and connection to the country. It was in Italy that he did much of his major writing. The author’s own empathy for his subject comes across loud and clear making the book a very “human” account of the troubled philosopher. I very much enjoyed it and learnt a lot. The very informative introduction is useful and welcome.
