 Yu, A.C.: Rereading the Stone: Desire and the Making of Fiction in Dream of the Red Chamber.
The eighteenth-century Hongloumeng, known in English as Dream of the Red Chamber or The Story of the Stone, is generally considered to be the greatest of Chinese novels--one that masterfully blends realism and romance, psychological motivation and fate, daily life and mythical occurrences, as it narrates the decline of a powerful Chinese family.
In this path-breaking study, Anthony Yu goes beyond the customary view of Hongloumeng as a vivid reflection of late imperial Chinese culture by examining the novel as a story about fictive representation.
Anthony Yu breaks new ground on a number of topics that are central to the interpretation of the novel and, in numerous instances, to Chinese literature as a whole.

 Amazon.co.uk: Journey to the West: v. 1: Books   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
The main difference between the Yu translation and the Waley translation from the 50s is that the latter is heavily abridged, whereas Yu has here translated the novel's 100 chapters in their entirety over 4 volumes.
The narrative follows the adventures of a stone monkey, hatched from a stone egg, who causes uproar in Heaven (their own fault: hiring The Great Sage Equal of Heaven as a mere horse-groom indeed!) until he's pinned under a mountain by the Buddha to await the arrival of a Holy Pilgrim.
Edited by Anthony C. Yu, it is four volumes and length, is almost exactly the same as the original masterpiece, which was written in the 1500s.

However, if you look past the author's attempts to shock you with the worst side of China, you'll see he has more knowledge of Native American trickster traditions and only just a vague idea of the Monkey King.
The most amusing to me being of course that he refers to Anthony C. Yu's "Journey to the West" translation, yet gets the author's name wrong!
The story is told in an interesting surreal style, but the plot itself is a rather cliched American man meets Asian woman tragedy.
