It recounts a Tang-dynasty monk's quest for Buddhist scriptures in the 7th century AD, accompanied by an omni-talented kung-fu Monkey King called Sun Wukong, one of the most memorable characters in all of literature. Comparable to The Canterbury Tales or Don Quixote, the tale is at once a comic adventure story, a humorous satire of Chinese bureaucracy, a spring of spiritual insight, and an extended allegory in which the group of pilgrims journeys towards enlightenment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48327201718507,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":31.7,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9780241457399","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
