Winner of the 2026 International Booker Prize, winner of the 2024 National Book Award for Translated Literature. Disguised as a translation of a rediscovered text by a Japanese writer, Taiwan Travelogue is a bittersweet story of love between two women, nested in an artful exploration of language, history and power. Set in May 1938, the young novelist Aoyama Chizuko sails from Japan to Taiwan where her interpreter proffers tantalising glimpses of island life and helps her to taste as much of its authentic cuisine as her famously monstrous appetite can bear.
