Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Water Margin (Dent-Young Translation, Vol. 5)
The Scattered Flock, the last volume of this series of translations, contains chapters 91-120 that mark the disastrous end of the 108 heroes. The action in this volume can be divided into three parts: the campaign against Tian Hu, the campaign against Wang Qing and the campaign against Fang La. It is in the last of these that the heroes of Mount Liang begin to die. Their demise is as haphazard and casual as the scattering of the flock of geese when the Prodigy shoots them for mere amusement. But the theme of the vanity of human wishes, the emptiness of ambition, becomes prominent earlier. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Quite a slow start, with lots of random fighting and arguements about precedence at feasts- I liked volumes 2 and 3 best, when there's many silly plans, adulterous wives and great lunacy. Things have all gone a bit military in volumes 4 and 5, though there's some return to individual stories.
Lovely book overall, and great translation ( )
