| Publisher Description: This adaptation of a sixteenth-century Chinese comic novel is based on the true story of a seventh-century monk and his fabled sixteen-year pilgrimage from China to India in search of sacred texts. Mixing whimsy with spiritual weight, Zimmerman's script delivers a delightful and thought-provoking combination of comedy, adventure, satire, and allegories of human perseverance. |
