Style
Works in her early stage mainly depicted ordinary people and daily life, through which exquisitely portrayed characters' inner world, and reflecting people's dreams and pursuit, contradiction and suffering in their own era.
In 1986 and 1988, she published middle-length novels "Wheat Straw Stack"《麥秸垛》 and "Cotton Stack"《棉花垛》 respectively, both reflecting ancient history and culture, and concerning female's existence. After 1986, her novels obviously changed towards reflection on traditional Chinese cultures, with polysemous themes and varied techniques. In 1988, she wrote her first full-length novel "Rose Door"《玫瑰門》, in which she changed her harmonious and ideal poetic style, and displayed the dark side of life through competition for existence among women in several generations.
