This book examines the key works of the important Taiwanese Hakka writer Lee Chiao, including The Wintry Night Trilogy, The Oath of Brotherhood at Xilai Temple, Buried Injustice in 1947, Mountain Woman, The Story of Fanzailin Forest, The Crying Sound, The fiction, and more. Focusing on Lee Chiao’s concept of “historical material novels,” the book traces his creative process, his engagement with Taiwan’s historical transformations, and the development of his narrative techniques. It explores his literary influences, such as William Faulkner and Abe Kōbō, and his reconstructions of events like the Tapani Incident, World War II, and the February 28 Incident, analyzing his approach to fiction and historical representation. Through a study of Lee Chiao’s writing, this book reexamines postwar Taiwanese literature and its socio-historical background, offering new insights into the intersections of history, narrative, and identity.
