In 1989 "Taiwan" magazine devoted an entire issue to interviews with Taiwanese people talking about their working lives. Inspired by that issue, author John Spiri traveled to Taiwan to create similar narratives about workers in that country. Fortune was on his side as skilled interpreters introduced him to many fascinating individuals. A particularly fascinating section includes interviews with members of Taiwan's aboriginal community, the Bunun people living on or near the beautiful east coast. An elderly woman recalls the Japanese occupation and later the arrival of American missionaries. Gain insights into Taiwan and her people by reading Taiwanese at Work!
