“We [The Embassy of Saint Kitts and Nevis] are excited to be participating in this
year’s Reading Festival in Taipei. We decided to participate because we believe that
this event will most definitely assist in our unrelenting efforts to educate Taiwan’s
populace more about Saint Kitts and Nevis, which dovetails perfectly with Taiwan’s
national policy agenda and ambitions of realizing its 2030 Bilingual Nation goal.”
The five books that will be on display are ‘The Masquerade Dance’ and ‘Adventure
at Brimstone Hill’ written by Carol Ottley-Mitchell, and ‘The Final Passage’, ‘A
Distant Shore’, and ‘Crossing the River’ written by Caryl Phillips. These books
present readers with insights into Saint Kitts and Nevis’ magnificent culture, folklore
and history.

The Embassy donated these five books to Taiwan’s National Central Library on June
30th , 2022. Ambassador Francis informed of the “… plan to acquire more books that were
written by Kittitians and Nevisians and to also donate them to other libraries and
learning institutions across Taiwan”.
