Dao De Jing A Minimalist Translation
by Laotzi (translated by Bruce R. Linnell). It's a commission from Oberlin Editions Press via my friends at Deleon Designs. According to the contract, I'll maintain rights for all but the printed book.At first blush, creating yet another version of the classic seemed pointless. I've seen Read more of this blog post »
