The bestselling Journey to the West comic book by artist Chang Boon Kiat is now back in a brand new fully coloured edition. Journey to the West is one of the greatest classics in Chinese literature. It tells the epic tale of the monk Xuanzang who journeys to the West in search of the Buddhist sutras with his disciples, Sun Wukong, Sandy and Pigsy. Along the way, Xuanzang's life was threatened by the diabolical White Bone Spirit, the menacing Red Child and his fearsome parents and, a host of evil spirits who sought to devour Xuanzang's flesh to attain immortality. Bear witness to the formidable Sun Wukong's (Monkey God) prowess as he takes them on, using his Fiery Eyes, Golden Cudgel, Somersault Cloud, and quick wits! Be prepared for a galloping read that will leave you breathless!
San Zang and his disciples are getting closer to their destination when they arrive at the treacherous and impassible Mount Flame. In order to get past the fiery mountain and complete the journey, they will need the help of a precious treasure. But to gain possession of the treasure, Sun Wu Kong will have to answer for past choices and confront former allies.
Since his journey to the West began, San Zang has relied on the strength and wits of his disciples to overcome adversaries and escape certain death. Now, the four travelers must cross the Women's Kingdom, where the greatest threat isn't a monster or a dragon, but the forbidden desires of the human heart.
San Zang has known from the beginning of the journey to the West that Sun Wu Kong's short temper and violent tendencies could be as great a threat to their mission as any monster or demon. Now, a second Sun Wu Kong appears, and it is immediately clear that he embodies all of Wu Kong's worst traits. But the scariest thing may just be that even the Goddess of Mercy cannot tell the two Wu Kongs apart.
San Zang and his disciples enter a land consumed by an ominous fog and encounter an innkeeper who tells them of a mysterious threat in the mountains: seven monstrous fairies, both beautiful and savage, who will ensnare San Zang in a dangerous web of deceit. Now, Wu Kong, bajie, and Wu Jing will have to keep their wits about them to distinguish fact from fiction and reality from illusion; their master's life depends on it.
At long last, ten years after the Goddess of Mercy entrusted them with the journey to the West, San Zang and his disciples have reached the sacred mountain of West Heaven and will take possession of the Mahayana Sutras. But the Goddess intended for the journey to be difficult and dangerous, and just because the travelers have reached their destination does not mean they will make it safely home.
As the audacious Monkey King battles his way through a landscape of inexplicable places and unfamiliar passions, Further Adventures on the Journey to the West offers a wry, revisionist critique of the late-Ming fascination with desire. Building on the great sixteenth-century novel Journey to the West, which recounts the escapades of a monk and three companions traveling to India in search of Buddhist scriptures to carry back to China, this sequel is a parable of self-delusion that explores the tension between desire and emptiness from a Buddhist perspective. The consummate literati novel, written by an accomplished artist for a well-educated readership, it is filled with allusions and parodies and features a dream-sequence narrative that is innovative and sophisticated even by modern standards. This new, fully annotated translation by two acclaimed scholars and translators brings to life this remarkably inventive, playful early modern text. The volume includes the original commentaries and illustrations, a critical introduction and afterword, and notes that highlight the sources of the novel’s intertextual references, revealing the author’s erudition and versatility.
Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy. With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible. One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.
