In 1987, a new star entered the Chinese pulp fiction market. Cloaked in mystery, Xue Mili (雪米莉） kept a low profile; she made no public appearances, and accepted no interviews. All readers knew was that the author was a woman, and that she hailed from Hong Kong. Despite her elusiveness, Xue Mili's work was as popular as it was prolific. Her first novel soon had over one million copies in print, and within a year, Xue Mili had produced nine hit books.
On the second floor of the Taipei Fine Arts Museum, a shadowed doorway leads from bright white gallery space into darkness. A vast jungle landscape plucked from a fairy tale occupies the first room, and papier-mâché figures sit around a silver paper lake bordered by flickering amber lights.
