TAKES of Our Time: Tâigael: Stories from Taiwanese and Gaelic
from Tales of Our Time
For September, we're talking about different books we think you should know about as summer turns to fall! Today we're speaking with creative Will Buckingham who, besides being a writer in his own right, recenetly co-editied the book "Tâigael". We talk in-depth about the advernterous project, involving four separate short-fiction authors, and five languages! Tâigael presents stories lovingly created and translated by native speakers into English, Mandarin, Gàidhlig and Tâi-gí (in two separate writing systems), and an opportunity to enjoy stories not only inspired by four different and oddly similar language cultures, but made widely and equally available to speakers of all four!
