Tâigael is a groundbreaking book linking two distant worlds — Taiwan and Scotland. It features four original stories written in native tongues, translated across four languages and five scripts, brought together by two British publishers based in Tainan.
The book’s co-editor, Will Buckingham, joins us to share how the idea came to life, why its Tâigí stories use two different writing systems, and how only a Taiwanese-sourced font could make the book’s design possible.
