In Search of New Truths: Author, Ping Lu
Ping Lu, born in 1953 in Kaohsiung is a famous contemporary author. She is most known for her 2017 book, Heart Mandala, a grand tale of family history. Her academic training in psychology and journalism enrich her work with a reporter’s eye for detail and a therapist's attentiveness to emotions. Her 2020 work, The Gaps, which won the 2021 Taiwan Literature Golden Award, examines the experience of illness as an inner search for something missing. Ping is renowned for her mixture of a range of themes spanning from social issues to culture, gender, politics and human rights; her literary technique and stylistic innovation. Her works often invert readers' view of the world, producing unique correspondences between fiction and reality.
