Most of the chapters, each sculpted into poetic profundity that enlarges the beauty and truth of Lao Tzu’s wisdom, are footnoted with Le Guin’s illuminations, which reveal, and often add to, the original depth. So it should be no surprise that The book, sitting on her family’s living room shelves, captured her curiosity. Ursula K. Le Guin was born Ursula Kroeber in Berkeley, California, on October 21, 1929. He sees sacrifice of self or others as a corruption of power, and power as available to anybody who follows the Way.
