Taiwan Hsiang-t’u Literature (台灣鄉土文學)

(Issue 143/March 2020)

One of the best ways to learn about other cultures is through books – to know some of the history and traditions of the place.

If literature indeed mirrors the story of a generation, the Taiwan Hsiang-t’u Literature has very much reflected the lives of ordinary Taiwanese people in 1950-1960s. This genre is the current theme of Good Read Corner until the end of April.

Enjoy your reading.
