<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The <i>Chuang Tzu </i> has been translated into English numerous times, but never with the freshness, accessibility, and accuracy of this remarkable rendering. Here the immediacy of Chuang Tzu's language is restored in a idiom that is both completely fresh and true to the original text. This unique collaboration between one of America's premier poet-translators and a leading Chinese scholar presents the so-called "Inner Chapters" of the text, along with important selections from other chapters thought to have been written by Chuang Tzu's disciples.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"This new translation, which expertly preserves the humor and bite of these ancient teachings, will entice a whole new audience to read--and reread--Chuang Tzu's writings."-- <i>Publishers Weekly. </i> <p/><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Sam Hamill has translated more than two dozen books from ancient Chinese, Japanese, Greek, Latin, and Estonian.
