Book excerpt: The New Generation of Taiwan writers, born after 1970, has unquestionably established a distinguished presence in today’s literary circles, and they continue to scale the creative peaks. This issue is entitled, “Special Issue on the New Generation Writers,” and is intended to locate these works within the context of the development of Taiwan literature so that we may observe the special qualities they have brought to literary modulation and generational change. We have also attempted to summarize in stages the imagination/composition that this new generation has projected on a period of history and on their generation. 關於台灣新世代作家，本輯選譯的作品，只限於短篇小說。新世代小說的特點，諸如鄉土題材、家族故事、俚俗人物、民俗儀典、地誌景觀、比喻修辭等的敘述方式和表現技巧，與前行代的書寫類型迥然不同。出生於1970年後的台灣新世代作家在當今文壇，泰半已卓然成家，且持續攀登創作的峰頂。本輯定題為「新世代作家小說專輯」，即在於將這些作品放置於台灣文學發展脈絡裡，來觀看文學演化與世代流變的特徵，並嘗試階段性地總理新世代投射一個時代與世代的想像╱書寫。
