Claire Light, writing as Jadie Jang, has written about one of my favorite characters in Chinese folklore, the Monkey King. I think you’ll enjoy this interview as much as I enjoyed it. In our interview, Jadie and I discussed themes, the Monkey King in folklore, and recreating San Francisco as a character.

Her book is called Monkey Around, and it starts with a really cool fight scene. Enjoy!

We also discussed the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West, which you can learn more about HERE.

You can learn more about Jadie Jang at her website HERE and Twitter HERE.
