Working from existing translations, Father Merton composed a series of personal versions from his favorites among the classic sayings of Chuang Tzu, the most spiritual of the Chinese philosophers. Chuang Tzu, who wrote in the fourth and third centuries B.C., is the chief authentic historical spokesman for Taoism and its founder Lao Tzu (a legendary character known largely through Chuang Tzu's writings). Indeed it was because of Chuang Tzu and the other Taoist sages that Indian Buddhism was transformed, in China, into the unique vehicle we now call by its Japanese name -- Zen. The Chinese sage abounds in wit, paradox, satire, and shattering insight into the true ground of being. Father Merton, no stranger to Asian thought, brings a vivid, modern idiom to the timeless wisdom of Tao. Illustrated with early Chinese drawings. Book jacket.… (mere)

Taoism, with examples. ( )

I couldn't get through much of this. Maybe it's Merton fucking things up, but Zhuangzi comes off as a weed-high pseudeep freshman poetry major in what I read. Painful. ( )

I don't know if it's Merton or the original author, but this little pocket version of the Chuang Tzu simply delights. I suspect the fact that it is abridged allows for uneven or lackluster sections to be omitted, enhancing the overall impact of these Taoist tales and parables. ( )

I'd read Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" before but had never had the opportunity to read anything my Chuang Tzu. This was an excellent book that I read straight through, probably not the best way to read it, I think I'll get a physical copy so I can keep it on the nightstand to read the poetry section, again and again.
