Stories in Conversation with novelist Ed Lin, biographer and fiction writer Julia Lin, and memoirist Wiley Wei-Chiun Ho.
How does Taiwanese and Taiwanese diasporic culture play into historical and crime fiction, a biography, and a family memoir? This panel will see three authors—two born in the island nation, and the third in New York City—delve into their heritage while also moving forward to tell their stories. As Taiwan itself sees cultural shifts, what is preserved and what is lost in tales set in North America? Come for a lively discussion, audience Q&A, and book signing!
This session will be moderated by Charlie Smith, editor of Pancouver. 當台灣本身持續經歷文化轉變,那些以北美為背景的故事裡,究竟有哪些被保留下來?又有哪些正在悄然流失? 北美台裔作家 Ed Lin、 Julia Lin,以及 Wiley Wei-Chiun Ho 齊聚對談。 台灣文化與海外台灣社區的文化,如何形塑歷史小說、犯罪小說、人物傳記或家族回憶錄的書寫呢?這三位作家,其中兩位出生於台灣,另一位則在紐約出生,從各自的創作脈絡出發,回望自身文化根源,同時也思考如何透過書寫走向未來、述說屬於自己的故事。 此次座談由藝文媒體 Pancouver 主編 Charlie Smith 主持。現場尾聲安排觀眾QA與簽書環節。 This program is part of TAIWANfest…
