About the author

Gao Yang (1922–1992), whose original name was Xu Yanpian, was born in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. In 1948 he moved to Taiwan with the Air Force Academy and retired in 1959, after which he entered journalism and served as lead writer for the China Daily News. He rose to fame in 1962 with Li Wa and went on to write more than ninety historical novels, including The Complete Biography of Empress Dowager Cixi, Hu Xueyan, and A Dream of Red Mansions Broken. The library holds five of his works, spanning historical fiction as well as world history, personal finance, and management. Known for solid research and dense, vivid storytelling, he excelled at portraying human fates within historical settings; his Hu Xueyan series is especially widely read and has had a lasting influence on popular historical fiction in Chinese.
