“Magical Taiwan — Taiwan Literature Exhibition” coincides with Japan’s Obon festival and aligns with the season’s tradition of summer ghost stories. The exhibition approaches the different aspects of Taiwanese literature through the lens of the magical, the supernatural, and the realm of deities and spirits. Titled “You Have Arrived”, after the renowned plaque at Tainan City God Temple, the exhibition is imbued with a strong atmosphere of Taiwanese folk belief. The exhibition invites Taiwan’s deities and spirits to travel across the sea through the written word and arrive in Japan and welcomes both Taiwanese and Japanese audiences to join this gathering of the supernatural. Across six themed sections, Indigenous Culture, The Influence of Japanese Culture, Rediscovering Taiwanese Folk Beliefs, Contemporary Popular Literature, Fiction, and The Magical in Poetry, visitors follow in the magical footsteps of Taiwan, setting out from different communities and eras to experience the new, contemporary face of Taiwanese literature.
