A review by csjohnston
Fear and Trembling by Søren Kierkegaard

5.0

A lot packed into a hundred pages - I feel mentally exhausted after this one and I very much lost the thread during the section outlining the defense of Abraham's silence. This feels particularly relevant for a culture that is so deeply imbued with Christianity: we can be so desensitized to everything surrounding the Christian faith that it is easy to forget that true faith is always a miracle and is utterly incomprehensible.
