Yuan Chiung-chiung

Yuan Chiung-chiung (Chinese: 袁瓊瓊; pinyin: Yuán Qióngqióng; Wade–Giles: Yüan2 Chʻiung2-chʻiung2; born 25 November 1950) is a Taiwanese writer whose family originated in Meishan, Sichuan, China.

Yuan wrote poetry, fiction, essays, screenplays and television scripts during the Boudoir literature period for women.

Some of the issues that Yuan focused on are: women's role in family and the workplace, and their anxieties, romantic relationships and aspirations.

In contrast to Eileen Chang, who depicted the differences between social classes in China in a negative light, Yuan was raised in a middle-class family and did not show any animosity towards the economical differences in society, especially since the majority of the Taiwanese people have achieved middle-class status in post-war years.

Her more recent work often deals with young people trying to resolve their inner conflict with an external experience.
