کتاب چنان شلخته است که فهم مرا از کیرکگور کم‌تر و پریشان‌تر کرد. اگر با دیدی باز، و خواندن و تسلط بر آثار مهم کیرکگور به سراغ این کتاب نروید، هیچ‌چیزی از آن نخواهید فهمید.

بین این درباره‌ی کیرکگور‌‌هایی که ترجمه شده فکر کنم مفیدترین‌‍ش بود.

Rather heavy going but that is to be expected.

Søren Kierkegaard is quickly becoming a favorite thinker. I love his wit, his personality, his hair. This accessible book is a great introductory work into the thought of the Danish gadfly, that solitary individual.

This is an excellent introduction to Kierkegaard. It's really very enjoyable to read.

Interesting book and it got me started on how to thing about Kierkegaard. Didn't finish it because I wasn't really interested in the details, just wanted some framing.
