Fear and Trembling by Søren Kierkegaard

challenging informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

A seminal work of existentialism that left me thinking about the posited questions and their analysis for days. His writing is incredibly complex, not in prose but in thought. I often replaced ’faith’ with ‘goal’ or ‘purpose’, and whilst this wasn’t his intention I find the idea perfectly interchangeable. There’s concepts beyond just faith, leaning into ethics, passions, the will and the self, making this much more than what it’s acclaimed for being.
