Dionysian Pessimist - Paperback

by Aïsha Abdelfatah (Author)

Dionysian pessimism: a love of fate, going through life with unbridled joy, finding beauty in even the most brutal parts of life.
Following Nietzsche's call for an unconditional love of life and an appreciation for its aesthetic value, these poems are an attempt at finding the beauty in all life has to offer, and an effort at embracing even its most painful moments.
With themes of hedonism, religion and Greek mythology, this collection is in its essence a love letter to life and fate's barbarity.
