Chiu Miao-Chin (Qiu Miaojin) (; May 29, 1969 – June 25, 1995) was a Taiwanese novelist. Her unapologetically lesbian sensibility has had a profound and lasting influence on queer literature in Taiwan. ==Biography== Originally from Changhua County in western Taiwan, she attended the prestigious Taipei First Girls' High School and National Taiwan University, where she graduated with a major in psychology. She worked as a counselor and later as a reporter at the weekly magazine ''The Journalist''. In 1994 she moved to Paris, where she pursued graduate studies in clinical psychology and feminism at University of Paris VIII. Her death was a suicide. Although there has been a great deal of speculation as to the exact cause of death, most accounts suggest that she stabbed herself with a kitchen knife. Her best-known work is ''Notes of a Crocodile'', for which she was awarded the China Times Literature Award in 1995. The novel has been widely described as "a cult classic." Qiu has been recognized as a counterculture icon, and a two-volume set of her diaries was published posthumously in 2007. Luo Yijun's book ''Forgetting Sorrow'' (遣悲懷) was written in her memory. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Qiu Miaojin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
