-- (Compact Classic) -- "Journey to the West is one of the
greatest treats in Chinese literature. A fantastic tale of
the Buddhist monk Xuanzang as he travels west in search of
Buddhist sutras with his three disciples, it has
entertained readers for more than four centuries with the
trials and tribulation strewn on the pilgrims' path.
Readers, young and old, have loved the central character
the Monkey King for his mischief and magical powers. This
compact classic relates how Sun Wukong comes into existence
in the Mountain of Flowers and Fruit, and how he acquires
magical powers and uses them for mischief before putting
them to good use at the sevice of Xuanzang who heads west
to gather scriptures as instructed by the Tang emperor.
Along the way, Xuanzang and company have to contend with
the diabolical White Bone Spirit, the menacing Red Child
and his fearsome parents, and a host of other spirits with
nothing but evil on their mind. Witness Sun Wukong's raw
bravura as he takes them on by using his Fiery Eyes, Golden
Cudgel, Somersault Cloud and quick wits to good effect." --

-- "Water Margin is well-known as one of the four greatest
Chinese literary classics. It tells the stories of a group
of heroes who stand for different classes of people daring
to struggle against the corruption and oppression of the
times. Altogether there are 105 men and three women among
the notable characters in the Liangshan band. These stories
take place at the end of the Northern Song period and
describe vividly the people's lives of love and hate, ties
of friendship, loyalty and enmity, etc. This book relives
the most stirring chapters in the novel which have become
the subject of numerous dramas and films, and are the most
popular episodes in Chinese fiction. They include Lin Chong
killing the unworthy chief of Liangshan Marsh, Wu Song
slaying a tiger with his bare fists and avenging
injustices, and Song Jiang's attacks on the Zhu Family
Village." -- Translation of: Shui hu zhuan. -- Call no.
