The Tao Te Ching in 30 days
Three chapters a day in the translation you choose, the line that stayed and what it asks of you, nature noticed and stillness, then three days to go back.
Readers who want to read the whole book once, slowly enough to keep something.
Order as is goes straight to the order form, where you choose the days, binding and address and see the price before you pay. Change it first opens the whole book in the editor. No account needed for either.
Front pages
