The Journey to the West
Book description
Why read it?
1 author picked The Journey to the West as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Wow. This book grabbed me, forced open my mind, and turned me into a Sinophile. I’m into my third reading now, all 2,000 pages of it.
Crazy adventures, Buddhism, Taoism, and a journey into my own society—there’s too much Monkey in me, and I could use a bit more Sha Monk. My own novel is based on this Chinese classic.
From Joel's list on craziest books that will make you think.
