RE: Book Review: "Three Kingdoms," by Luo Guanzhong
I would love to read this book but I doubt I will ever be able to commit that amount of my reading tome to complete it. It would be nice if there were a modern novel telling the same story that covers as much of the detail as possible in this book. I'd read that for sure!
There are novelizations of individual stories from it, but trying to give the highlights of a novel which, even at its length, finds itself rushed to cover a span of nearly a century of time, would be difficult.
Basically, if you find any Chinese movie about "the Battle of Red Cliffs," that covers the most pivotal battle and it captures the type of subterfuge and intrigue that run throughout the rest of the book.
