Summer writing reading book-buying project (Day Twenty-Nine): New books in the former native speaker's library

A few more books have been added to my collection, which may come in handy as I do my writing. Two of them are from the "Literature from Taiwan Series," that is published by Cambria Press in collaboration with the National Human Rights Museum, National Taiwan Normal University, and the National Museum of Taiwan Literature. (I want to visit those two museums once I get a chance to go back to Taiwan.) 
These are obviously collections of short stories written during or reflecting on the White Terror period. 

The third book, published by Rowman & Littlefield, is a collection of essays by some major figures in and scholars of contemporary Taiwan:
Hopefully I'll be able to dip into some of these books as I work on a couple of projects during the next few weeks before I have to start teaching again in July.
