On the Heights of Despair by E. M. Cioran

On the Heights of Despair by E. M. Cioran

Cioran wrote this at twenty-two in Romania, during a period when he could not sleep for months, and said later that the book saved him from suicide by allowing him to say everything.

It is the most furious and least controlled of his books — short pieces on ecstasy, nothingness, the value of insomnia, the absurdity of being an individual, and the strange exaltation that despair sometimes produces. Where the later work is polished, this one is young and shouting, and many readers prefer it for exactly that reason.

The debut of the twentieth century's great pessimist, translated from the Romanian.
