The tumultuous recent history of Taiwan surprisingly gave the islands unusually diverse cultures. People immigrated to Taiwan for all kinds of reasons, from missionaries passing on their gospels, businessmen developing new markets, workers seeking bigger money, to refugees running from wars. Thus memories of the lost past are a motif of Taiwanese literature and a powerful approach for writers to deal with issues inconvenient to confront face to face. These issues include regime transfer, political oppression, beliefs, sexuality, family values, urbanization, fantasies, misunderstanding and discrimination. All these can be found in these two marvelous short stories. Lin's ABC Doggie Bites Piggie is the love story of Marva, a young woman living during the time of regime handover in the 1940s. Luo's Nomad is an urban fantasy of today's Taipei.
