As a student of Taiwanese, I like a challenge. And so when, earlier this year, the Taiwan-Ireland poetry translation competition was announced, with the challenge of translating three poems by Jocelyn Wen (Un Jio̍k-kiâu 温若喬) into English, I thought I’d throw my hat into the ring.

I’m delighted to be listed as one of the three joint winners in the competition, alongside my fellow translators, Charia Mastronardo and Chiray Lin.
