But my focus for this post will be Journey to the West, a 16th Century retelling of the legendary pilgrimage of a Buddhist monk, Xuanzang, to ‘the Western Regions’ in search of enlightenment, but with a host of fantasy characters and folklore elements to jazz things up a bit. A Dream of Red Mansions is considered so important that there is an entire field of study dedicated to its 120 chapters known as 红学 (Red Study), so I’m intrigued to see what the big deal is. My grasp of Chinese literature is limited, but there were two novels I was determined to get, if only to be able to say that I at least owned copies (even if all they do is sit unread and gather dust) Cao Xueqin and Gao E’s 红楼梦 ( A Dream of Red Mansions/Dream of the Red Chamber) and Wu Cheng’En’s 西游记 ( Journey to the West).These are two of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature, and are hugely influential in broader Chinese culture. So instead of sightseeing on Thursday afternoon, I took the train down to the shopping district in 王府井 ( Wangfujing), making a beeline for the impressive book shop and, more specifically, its selection of English books, as I’ve been a little short on reading materials since arriving in Beijing, and I’m having enough trouble getting through my textbooks, let alone trying to read a whole book in Chinese. Since coming back from Inner Mongolia, I’ve had a fairly inactive couple of weeks, as my inner tourist has been feeling a little worn out from all the traipsing about I’ve been doing.

(This post will contain spoilers for the film Monkey King: Hero Is Back! Also for Journey to the West probably, but I don’t think you can really spoil a story from the 16th Century)
