With this blazing path of activism, queer Taiwanese literature has also risen in prominence and there is a growing popular interest in stories about the transgression of gender and sexual norms. Since the lifting of martial law in 1987, queer authors have redefined Taiwan's cultural scene, and throughout the 1990s many of their works won the most prestigious literary awards and accolades. This anthology provides a deeper understanding of queer literary history in Taiwan. It includes a selection of short stories, previously untranslated, written by Taiwanese authors dating from 1975 to 2020. Readers are introduced to a wide range of themes: bisexuality, aging, mobility, diaspora, AIDS, indigeneity, recreational drug use, transgender identity, surrogacy, and many others. The diversity of literary tropes and styles canvased in this book reflects the profusion of gender and sexual configurations that has marked Taiwan's complex history for the past half century. Queer Taiwanese Literature: A Reader is a timely and important resource for readers interested in Taiwan studies, queer literature, and global cultural studies. This book is part of the Cambria Literature in Taiwan Series, in collaboration with the National Museum of Taiwan Literature and National Taiwan Normal University"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Short stories, Chinese $z Taiwan $v Translations into English. 650 0 $a Chinese fiction $z Taiwan $v Translations into English. 650 0 $a Chinese fiction $y 20th century $v Translations into English. 650 0 $a Chinese fiction $y 21st century $v Translations into English. 650 0 $a Sexual minorities' writings, Chinese $z Taiwan $v Translations into English. 650 7 $a Chinese fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00857362 650 7 $a Short stories, Chinese. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01117143 651 7 $a Taiwan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01207854 648 7 $a 1900-2099 $2 fast 655 7 $a Translations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423791 700 1 $a Chiang, Howard, $d 1983- $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Queer Taiwanese literature. $d Amherst, New York : Cambria Press, [2021] $z 9781621966050 $w (DLC) 2021014734 830 0 $a Literature from Taiwan series. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117025723.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=14D10808177D11EC850ADFAD22ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
