Essay Instructions: Please write a thorough essay with 0% plagiarism on " Ingenious Pain by Andrew Miller" about the following prompt:

One of the major themes discussed in Alain de Botton's Consolation of Philosophy examines human suffering through the writings of Friedrich Nietzsche. For the German philosophoer, a world without pain makes no sense, since through his rational deduction pain is essential to our psychic growth in the long term. Andrew Miller seems to take a similar stance, as he fictionally constructs a character who enters the world immune to physical and emotional suffering; hence anesthetized also to pleasure. Please explore how Miller takes Nietzsche stance on human suffering, by analyzing the different stages of metamorphosis that takes place with James Dyer, as he goes from an indifferent automaton child to a full human being.

Essay Instructions: 1. The concept of Schopenhauer and Kierkegaard: The world (Being) as Will : (another) reaction to Kant. Suffering predominantes, and this is our basic experience of Being, for which only the negation or denial of the Will spells relief (true happiness). The "existential" response to Being: despair and the "leap" of faith.
