She initiates a female kingdom and a female generation and constructs a history focused on feminism.
Jun-jun Yun published four books of essays about love letters and focused on betray in relationships and trauma. She challenges herself to transparency in writing. She poses articles on a blog, and uses short sentences and the form of love letters to make her infidelity known to the world, which has become a book of self-destruction. Moreover, she makes a breakthrough in the ways of writing.
Eileen Chang adopts the autography novels to restore the life history. Although she continues to write the bad things about the family and the infidelity in relationship, she has already transformed from the early focus on exposing the bad things done by parents to concentrate on her lost love in family and marriage. She creates the cycle of sadness and accomplishes her life fully with love.
