Publisher Description
Following the successful debut of the Parent's Tao Te Ching—William Martin now reinterprets the Tao for couples.
With The Parent's Tao Te Ching, William Martin beautifully re-interpreted Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching—one of the world's oldest and most widely read books of wisdom—expressly for parents. Now, he distills and freshly re-interprets the essence of each of the Tao's 81 chapters to speak directly and clearly to couples.
William Martin's indelible, spirited, and sage advice, rendered in free verse, captures the ancient spirit of Lao Tzu's original text, yet speaks directly to modern lovers—and to the full sweep of their experiences and emotions. A deeply felt alternative to advice books that urge listeners to manipulate their partners rather than to love them, The Couple's Tao Te Ching is for everyone who has embarked upon a loving relationship, which, as William Martin says, can be the most rewarding and enlightening adventure possible.
This title is skillfully narrated by Mike Fraser, a listener favorite. Listeners of Couple's Tao Te Ching may also enjoy the audio editions of Sage's Tao Te Ching and The Parent's Tao Te Ching, also narrated by Mike Fraser. This audiobook includes a selection of brief teachings from the author.
Produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont. ©2000 William Martin.
