Journey to the West

"Travel to the West" is one of the four great classic novels of Chinese literature, a large-scale fantasy episode, flooded by magic, humor, Buddhist philosophy and the spirit of incredible adventures. The story is based on a real historical event - the pilgrimage of the Buddhist monk Swanzhan (Tan Brother) to India after the holy morning in the 7th century. The main engine and bright star of the novel becomes the monk's satellite - the rebellious Emperor Sun Ukun, possessing incredible strength, possessing 72 magical transformations and flying in the cloud. Together with other colourful defenders—the brilliant and clever swine man Zhu Batshe and the faithful water spirit of Sha Sen—the hero accompanies the monk through dangerous lands, fighting with hundreds of demons, wreckers and monsters who desire to get the meat of the righteous. Chen has created a stunning world where the mythology, the Pluto novel, the satire on the official bureaucracy and a deep spiritual subtext about overcoming the inner passions on the way to enlightenment are enjoying. Who to read: Lovers of large-scale Asian fantasy, lovers of Eastern mythology and classical epic, lovers of Pluto stories with charismatic characters, as well as everyone who wants to immers in the main story of the East.
