Conversation with Bilingual Book Author on Kat Vespucci Takes Taiwan

June 28, 2018 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm EDT
Free

How Did Learning Chinese Change My View of The World?
Award Winning Author Ingrid Anders Shares Insights On English/Chinese Bilingual Novel:
Kat Vespucci Takes Taiwan
How did an American girl who initially thought Thai was the official language of Taiwan successfully build a life and career in the island’s capital city?

A rare English/Chinese bilingual edition novel by award-winning American author Ingrid Anders, Kat Vespucci Takes Taiwan is one of the most authentic accounts of an American’s experience in East Asia.

If you want to know how “How are you” could get mixed up with “Have you eaten a horse” in Chinese, or whether people from Taiwan consider themselves Taiwanese or Chinese (and the answer might blow your mind), or what a Christian’s first visit to a Buddhist temple feels like, then I invite you to come to this book and culture seminar.
