A researcher based in Taiwan is confronted with the discovery of a funerary tablet in an abandoned house. His life and consciousness are upset: spirits and ghosts of Taiwan and China visit him, surround it and testify of their history. This short book is the first of a new collection entitled "Liminaires": a collection of literary texts evocating a geographical and cultural elsewhere. The diversity of experience here gives voice to the intimate ways of engaging in a sensitive narrative, narrative of the other and self-revealing.

Literary narrative with cultural and historical developments on Taiwan at the end of the book.
