Reviews for The Analects: An Illustrated Edition

C. C. Tsai's popular cartoon adaptations of the Chinese classics are original and uniquely accessible. -Mark Csikszentmihalyi, University of California, Berkeley C. C. Tsai's introductions to the world of Chinese thought and spirituality are masterpieces. His drawings are charming, clever, and engaging; his texts are clear and faithful to the spirit of the originals; and Brian Bruya's translations are fluid and accurate. -Stephen C. Angle, Wesleyan University [C. C. Tsai's] books are awe-inspiring. His line is elegant; his characters are sharply drawn; his humor is sly and appropriate; and his subject is profound. This is cartooning of the highest order. -Larry Gonick, author of The Cartoon History of the Universe Of Note in the 2018 Freeman Book Awards (Young Adult / High School Books), Weatherhead East Asian Institute of Columbia University
