The Book of Lieh-Tzu, by Liezi. Part III.

Although Lieh Tzu&#39;s work has evidently passed through the hands of many editors and gathered numerous accretions, there remains a considerable nucleus which in all probability was committed to writing by Lieh Tzu&#39;s immediate disciples, and is therefore older than the genuine parts of Chuang Tzu.  There are some obvious analogies between the two authors, and indeed a certain amount of matter common to both; but on the whole Lieh Tzu&#39;s book bears an unmistakable impress of its own. The geniality of its tone contrasts with the somewhat hard brilliancy of Chuang Tzu, and a certain kindly sympathy with the aged, the poor and the humble of this life, not excluding the brute creation, makes itself felt throughout.  Translated by Lionel Giles.

The Idiot (Part 3 & 4), by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. Part VIII.

The extraordinary child-adult Prince Myshkin, confined for several years in a Swiss sanatorium suffering from severe epilepsy, returns to Russia to claim his inheritance and to find a place in healthy human society.  The teeming St Petersburg community he enters is far from receptive to an innocent like himself, despite some early successes and relentless pursuit by grotesque fortune-hunters. His naive gaucheries give rise to extreme reactions among his new acquaintance, ranging from anguished protectiveness to mockery and contempt.  But even before reaching the city, during the memorable train journey that opens the novel, he has encountered the demonic Rogozhin, the son of a wealthy merchant – who is in thrall to the equally doomed Nastasia Filippovna: beautiful, capricious and destructively neurotic, she joins with the two weirdly contrasted men in a spiraling dance of death…  Translated by Eva M. Martin First reader: Chapter 1-7 and 9 of Part 3 Second reader: Chapter 8 and 10 of Part 3, and whole of Part 4 Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a>Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a> ...
