Este texto fue escrito en 1938 por uno de los grandes pensadores del siglo XX.

Sin embargo, la fuerza de estos impulsos cristianos, aun despojados de contenido, sí que constituyó la base del pensamiento de Nietzsche hasta su filosofía tardía.

Autumn begins with a letter Karl Ove Knausgaard writes to his unborn daughter, showing her what to expect of the world. He writes one short piece per day, describing the material and natural world with the precision and mesmerising intensity that have become his trademark.
