The latest special issue of Taiwan Literature: English Translation Series focuses on the short stories written by Wang Chen-ho not only to reveal his leading role in the Nativist literature that rose in Taiwan during the 1990s, but to introduce his works in the unique local language of Taiwan for English language readers. In this special issue on Wang Chen-ho, seven stories were selected for translation:"The Winter That Year,"
"Two Tigers,"
"Little Lin Comes to Taipei,"
"She Really Can Put Curses on People,"
"Sulan's Gonna Get Married,"
"The Mouse Serves a Guest Tea," and "Miss Sulan's Gonna Get Married: A Lifetime of Marital Bliss." These seven stories span the two periods of Wang's works mentioned above. The first five belong to the first period of Naturalism, while the last two break away from Naturalism to embrace broader themes, even containing a lot of comedy, as in the final story,
"Miss Sulan's Gonna Get Married: A Lifetime of Marital Bliss."
