ETC Werner on Lin Yutang’s Taipei Bookshelves

Posted: November 29th, 2016 | No Comments »

Back in 2010 I visited Lin Yutang’s house in Taipei, which is now a museum. I blogged about his Taipei house and noted that ETC Werner’s 1922 classic Myths and Legends of China was on his bookshelf. But, in 2010, I didn’t have a camera phone so I never got a chance to snap it. Recently the excellent writer on matters Chinese Michael Meyer visited the house and he did have a camera phone and got a shot of the book proudly displayed on Lin’s shelves.
