«Ten Thousand Miles Without a Cloud» is Sun Shuyun's travelogue, published by Harper Perennial in paperback (496 pages, in English).
Sun Shuyun reconstructs the journey of the Chinese monk Xuanzang to India in search of true Buddhism and reclaims his historical figure. The narrative alternates that legendary route with the author's personal history: her grandmother's Buddhist faith, her family's communist idealism, and her own search for spiritual identity.
Xuanzang's original journey lasted eighteen years and crossed 118 kingdoms. Sun Shuyun, born in China, was a documentary producer for the BBC.
Recommended for readers interested in Asian history, Buddhism, and travel narratives.
