Overview
A collectible hardcover edition of one of the all-time great fantasy novels—which Neil Gaiman has said “is in the DNA of 1.5 billion people”—in an acclaimed one-volume translation, and featuring an illustrated foreword by the author of the New York Times bestselling graphic novel that is the basis for the Disney+ series American Born Chinese, starring Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, and Stephanie Hsu
A Penguin Vitae Edition
Before there was The Lord of the Rings, there was China’s Monkey King. The title character, also known as Sun Wukong, is a shape-shifting trickster on a kung-fu quest for eternal life, and is beloved by fans of the most popular anime of all time, Dragon Ball, and the world’s largest e-sport, the video game League of Legends. For raiding Heaven’s Orchard of Immortal Peaches, the Buddha pins him beneath a mountain and frees him only five hundred years later. To redeem himself, our irrepressible rogue hero has to protect the pious monk Tripitaka on his fourteen-year journey to India in search of precious Buddhist sutras. Accompanied by two other fallen immortals—Pigsy, a rice-loving pig able to fly with its ears, and Sandy, a depressive man-eating river-sand monster—Monkey King undergoes eighty-one trials, doing battle with all manner of dragons, ogres, wizards, and femmes fatales in this rollicking adventure that not only stands as the most popular of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature but also gave us one of the most memorable superheroes in world literature.
Penguin Vitae—loosely translated as “Penguin of one’s life”—is a deluxe hardcover series from Penguin Classics celebrating a dynamic and diverse landscape of classic fiction and nonfiction from seventy-five years of classics publishing. Penguin Vitae provides readers with beautifully designed classics that have shaped the course of their lives, and welcomes new readers to discover these literary gifts of personal inspiration, intellectual engagement, and creative originality.
