Thank you D, M, and C for hosting a lovely party. I wouldn’t dream of ringing in the new year anywhere else.

Monkey King

The story of Monkey, and his journey to the west, has always been one of my favorites. I’ve read my favorite abridged translation about 3 or 4 times, and I just recently finished reading the 1400 page original version (well, yes, it was a translation, too, but you know what I mean).
As much as I love the story, I love artists interpretations even more. This is why I will probably buy myself the new album by Hewlitt and Albarns (yup, the guys behind Gorillaz have made a Monkey album, based in part on their opera). This is also why I love this painting.
Phew… I never thought I’d ramble so much using this tiny onscreen keyboard.
