Book Review One: A bicycle of Cathay – Frank Stockton


Well, hello to anyone out there reading. I had taken a long break from book review and blogging as a whole, pursuing other projects. I, however have been reading, a lot.So here is my first review for 2018 of F. Stockton's Book, A Bicycle of Cathay.
I found this book as a soft copy under the iOS application My Books.

This is the first book I read in 2018. A story about a young man who takes a literal journey on his bicycle into ‘Cathay’, through different seasons and  meeting new people. Also a metaphorical journey in life, discovering new things, creating new acquaintances and finding love.

The end of the story shows that sometimes we go out to search for that thing that is actually right on our door-step. Despite meeting all those women on his journey into Cathay, he eventually settles down with Europa back home.

A delightful straight-forward story that is ideal for someone who is into light reading. I do recommend it.
