    About this ebook

    'What could have happened to me?... How did I soar to such heights, above the rabble sitting by the well?'

    Ecce Homo is Nietzsche's compelling autobiography, written in 1888, just weeks before he succumbed to madness.

    Nietzsche's last great work, a fascinating and bizarre text, traces the development of his own philosophy and the thinkers who influenced him along the way.

    Both shocking and revealing, Ecce Homo is a window into the mind of one of Germany's most acclaimed philosophers.
