Tsai Chih-Chung presents these Chinese classics to readers through vivid comics. Journey to the West is probably the most famous and best-loved novel in China and is considered one of the four great classical novels of Chinese literature. Its place in Chinese literature is roughly comparable to Homer's epic poem, The Odyssey, in Western literature. The story is about the adventure of a Buddist monk, Tang Sanzang and his three disciples: the Monkey King, Monk Pig and Monk Sand, and their journeys towards west in search of Buddhist Sutra. The stories of ghosts, foxes, fairies and monsters in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" feature in the love between human and ghost-foxes, the beauty of human nature and people's yearning for a better life and a pure and peaceful inner world. The myth and legend of "The Legend of the White Snake" has existed for hundreds of years in China. The story is about a spirit of snake by the name of Bai Suzhen, who longs to experience human love, so she and her company, Xiao Qing, disguise as two young girls. Suzhen falls in love with Xu Xian in Hangzhou. Fahai, a Buddhist monk from the Golden Mountain Monastery, tries to separate the couple and sends Suzhen to captivity under the Leifeng Pagoda. "Feng Shen Bang" is a Chinese mythical story about gods and demons. The content relies on the historical background of "the rise of Zhou dynasty and the destruction of Shang dynasty." Many figures such as Jiang Ziya, Nezha, God Erlang Yang and Lei Zhenzi are household names for folk tales. This series is published in line-to-line Chinese and English, which makes it easy for learning both languages.
