About the author

Public information about Dai Qiao is very limited, and it is not yet possible to confirm the author's nationality, dates of birth and death, or educational background; no English name has been recorded either. Judging from the two works included in the collection, I'm Fifteen and Still Don't Want to Die and She, Dai Qiao's writing tends to center on young people and women, and the titles suggest a concern with life circumstances and individual emotions, with a narrative perspective inclined toward the inner world of young protagonists. Both works are classified as foreign literature, which suggests that the writing may address a broader readership and carry a cross-cultural reading dimension. Because firsthand materials such as biographical details and statements on writing are lacking, the full picture of Dai Qiao's style and literary influence awaits further information; this introduction is based only on the titles and categories of the works and does not make excessive inferences.
