Tâigael: Stories from Taiwanese & Gaelic

In a remote Taiwanese temple, a goddess of saliva vanishes without a trace. One Hogmanay in Inverness, a family party is disrupted by an unexpected guest. On the streets of Taipei, an elderly prophet foretells an attack on the subway. On the way home from her day in court, a woman finds a sheep tangled in the roadside brambles.

Four writers, four stories, and four languages. T?igael is a first-of-its-kind collaborative writing and translation project, bringing together writers from Scotland and Taiwan, to explore language, translation, and culture. These four stories by Elissa Hunter-Dorans (Scotland), Ki?-kiong ?? (Taiwan), Lisa MacDonald (Scotland) and Naomi S?m (Taiwan) cross between languages and cultures to speak of things unspoken, and to find new and surprising connections.
