小夏

Xiaoxia is an author about whom limited public information is available. It is known that two works appear under this name, touching on the two genres of food writing and suspense fiction. The representative work Oat Life centers on oats as an everyday ingredient and belongs to food writing, while The Woman in Red is classified as suspense fiction and, judging by its title, carries an eerie, supernatural flavor. The two works span quite different subjects—one about everyday eating and the other a suspense narrative—showing the author's attempts at writing across genres. Because details of biography, nationality, dates of birth and death, and English name cannot be confirmed, a full picture of the author's background and writing style remains difficult to sketch, and readers can only sense the direction of the material and manner of expression through the existing works themselves.
