Central News Agency Host: Chiu Tzu-yin / Central News Agency Senior Reporter Guest: Liu Tzu-chieh / Writer, Screenwriter, Author of "The Seven Days After My Father Died" Liu Tzu-chieh, the writer and screenwriter who made waves in film and literature with "The Seven Days After My Father Died," has recently released a new collection of short stories, "Rebirth." She also translated the poetry collection "As If in a Clear Night Sky" by the beloved Japanese poet Ginshirō Sōsei, showcasing her mature and seasoned perspective on life and death. Having grown up in a rural temple in Changhua, Liu once aspired to move to the city, not considering her hometown as a source of inspiration for her writing. It wasn't until her father's passing and her return to witness traditional funeral rites that her literary horizons broadened. Now in middle age, facing the departure of some friends, she is driven to transform these doubts into her fictional creations. The new book, "Rebirth," includes nine stories related to death. Whether it's incorporating the real experience of her uncle's spirit possession during her grandfather's funeral or exploring the transformation of a terminally ill character from being "lost and bewildered" to "self-possessed," she uses a light yet precise writing style to guide readers in contemplating how to live a life full of awareness in the real world. Listen to this episode of "Culture Plus" to reflect on life and creation together, and to "rebirth".
