About the author

Lei Yan is an author about whom limited public information is available, and two of her works are currently included in the collection. Judging from The Black Cross and The Rider of the White Horse: A Collection of Lei Yan's Fiction and Prose, her writing spans both fiction and prose, leans toward social fiction in subject matter, and is classified among classic works. The titles of these two works suggest that her writing touches on real-world circumstances and the fates of characters, while the prose section may offer more personal observation and lyric expression. Because her dates of birth and death, nationality, and English name are not clearly recorded, this introduction can only summarize based on the works and categories in the collection rather than focusing on biographical details. Although Lei Yan's output is small, it has been preserved under the labels of social fiction and classic works, indicating that her writing has a certain readability and value for preservation in both thematic exploration and narrative style, and is worth readers' attention through the works themselves.
