🖋️ 活動介紹 About the Event
歡迎加入我們的短篇小說讀書會！此雙語讀書會在台北每隔兩個月定期聚集，以指定的語言小組模式來討論短篇作品。 通過我們的趣味暖身活動及引導討論，我們希望參與者可以藉此深化對於文本本身的批判閱讀能力，並且同時探討有關台灣的文學、歷史、政治及文化相關等議題。
Join our Short Story Club! Our Chinese-English bilingual group in Taipei meets every two months to discuss short texts in smaller, language-specific groups. Through our fun warm-ups and guided discussions, we hope participants may deepen their critical reading of the text while exploring literary, historical, political and cultural themes related to Taiwanese identity.
📖文本介紹 About the Text and Author
李潔珂（Jessica J. Lee）是一位加拿大籍的台英混血作家及環境史學者。藉由充滿詩意的散文風格，融合家族史、自然史、個人回憶錄與旅行書寫，來回溯國家、家族、土地與自我認同。我們所挑選的章節拼湊出作者與外婆相處的片刻，以及外婆從中國搬來臺灣前的零碎片段。作者將家族往事編織入臺灣自然環境的描繪中，與自己穿越深山、尋找自我歸屬的旅途相互對照。在面對日益複雜世界之中的個人、歷史與環境謎題時，這部跨文類之作並不試圖提供現成的答案，而是邀讀者同行，一起踏上探索之旅。
In poetic prose, Jessica J. Lee, a British-Canadian-Taiwanese author and environmental historian, combines family history, natural history, personal memoir, and travelogue to trace the multifaceted identities of a country, a family, a land, and herself. This excerpt pieces together moments between Lee and her grandmother and fragments of her grandmother’s story before arriving in Taiwan from China. These family histories are paired alongside histories of the mapping of Taiwan’s environment and Lee’s personal mapping while traversing the mountains of Taiwan. This hybrid text offers no neat answers to the personal, historical, and environmental riddles of our increasingly complicated world, but invites readers to take part in the exploration journey.
李潔珂是一名作家及環境史學者，擁有環境史及美學博士學位，目前在加拿大國王學院大學，擔任創意寫作教授。她出生於加拿大，父親為威爾斯人，而母親為臺灣人。她的環境書寫，包含《山與林的深處》、《離散的植物》（Dispersals），經常探討自然與身分認同的交織性。她獲得多項獎項，包括臺灣的 Openbook 好書獎。
Jessica J. Lee is an author and environmental historian with a PhD in Environmental History and Aesthetics. She teaches creative writing at the University of King’s College. Born in Canada to a Welsh father and a Taiwanese mother, Lee’s environmental writing in both Two Trees Make a Forest, Dispersals, and other texts often feature the hybridity of nature and identity. She has won many awards including a Taiwan Openbook Award.
