More like a bulky Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Still worthy of five stars though. - Summary: This is a great book is for people who know what they are getting into. I do not treat this as my only Nietzsche book. I substituted it with other works of Nietzsche. Pro: This book contains the Kaufmann translation of Thus Spoke Zarathustra, and that alone makes it deserving of five stars. Cons: 52% of this 704 page book is Thus Spoke Zarathustra. The typeset is ancient and most of the book's girth gets sacrificed to accomodate the huge font,spacing, and margins. It is great for old people, and people who seek a durable book with thick pages, but it utterly fails as a portable library. Note: Personally, I don't think Thus Spoke Zarathustra is a good entrypoint to Nietzsche's Will to Power. In the absense of Beyond Good and Evil, they should have at least included the full text of On the Geneology of Morals in this book. But I won't judge Kaufmann's decision. He is the most impartial Nietzsche translator to my knowledge. This book certainly doesn't have a replacement. Review: Portable Nietzsche is really portable - I can’t review Nietzsche. This is impossible. This is review of condition of the book. Condition is not so great. The book is easy to hold and really portable in that sense. Though 5 star is indispensable for Nietzsche. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #73,419 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #480 in Essays (Books) #3,777 in Biographies, Diaries & True Accounts | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 804 Reviews | ## Images ![The Portable Nietzsche - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ZZOFiTr6L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Portable Nietzsche?

This is review of condition of the book. Condition is not so great. The book is easy to hold and really portable in that sense. Though 5 star is indispensable for Nietzsche. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic *by D***D on 17 October 2017* 1. Personally my favourite translation of Nietzsche’s work 2. Kaufmann’s sensitivity in handling the task of translation is a rare quality 3. The book is as much the delight of reading Nietzsche’s ideas as much as marvelling at Kaufmann’s artistry. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Portable Nietzsche (Portable Library) - Basic Writings of Nietzsche (Modern Library Classics) - The Gay Science: With a Prelude in Rhymes and an Appendix of Songs --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/77566751-the-portable-nietzsche](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/77566751-the-portable-nietzsche) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
