Monkey: A Journey to the West
"Cosmic kung fu on the scale ofStar Wars! China's favorite rip-roaring morality tale has everything—including, here, a brilliant rendition by David Kherdian. It's charming and utterly delightful."—Huston Smith, author ofThe World's Religions"David Kherdian retells the ancient Chinese allegory poetically and precisely. Monkey (who represents our restless intelligence)—helped by other humorful and energetic demons—guides master Monk (the searching ego) towards self-insights in the Zen-Taoist tradition. A great read!"—Janwillem van de Wetering, author ofA Glimpse of Nothingness
