  • What is Taiwan for the world and the world for Taiwan? In this podcast series, a group of Taiwan specialists based at the University of Central Lancashire, chat with book writers, artists, directors, professionals from, or with, an interest in Taiwan and explore how the ‘little’ island of Taiwan can be a starting point to (re)think the way we look at the world. Whether you already know Taiwan, you want to know more about it, or you just want to be inspired by it, this is the podcast for you! This podcast series is hosted by Dr Ti-han Chang, Dr Lara Momesso and Dr Adina Zemanek.

  • Book Chat: Home and Island Writing in "Bubble War" with Kao Yi-feng
    Dec 31 2024
    In this episode, our host, Ti-han, invited a renown Taiwanese sci-fi writer, Kao Yi-feng, to talk about his fictional writings. Yi-feng is known for his way of combining elements of fantasy and magical realism with specific “linguistic features” of Hakka. In our conversation, Yi-feng recounts how his background of living in a Hakka-speaking community influences his lifelong creativity, and how spatial and bodily movement also allows him to shape and reshape the sense of “home” in his own novels. The podcast interview focussed in part on his work, Bubble War 泡沬戰爭 (2014), but it also links with how Yi-feng conceives Island Writing for Taiwan today! Learn more about your ad choices.
