Forty-four proverbs, each consisting of four words, and each accompanied by a verse of four lines containing four words. Author Jeff Tay offers a modern rendition of an ancient art form; the traditional Chinese proverb. Using poetry and visual design, The Lucky Swords Book of 44 Proverbs uncovers philosophical perspectives on matters that are often overlooked in a contemporary fast-paced world, with themes ranging from the natural order of the universe, to the consequences of our actions, to human nature, and onto the pursuit of happiness. The forty-four proverbs signify a new age of philosphical thinking that is logical, pragmatic, and universally comprehensive.
