Media Reviews

"There is nothing quite like 'Monkey' in Western literature. Imagine a combination of picaresque novel, fairy tale, fable, Mickey Mouse, Davy Crockett, and 'Pilgrim's Progress'; and then imagine, if you can, all these elements welded into an artistic whole so that no matter how fantastic the adventure or how enigmatic the allegory, the characterization and meaning remain always human and realizable."
