“We, a Woman” depicts three Chinese women of varied lives in different historical periods. Ping Gu, the pirate, commands a fleet of piracy which robs as well as trades through the Taiwan Strait. Her deeds of brutality and determination dominate the transportation route of precious goods in the East China Waters at the end of the eighteenth century. She is a sly cunning troublemaker in the eyes of the Qin Dynasty. Yu Ying, the Taiwanese geisha, sold by her parents due to poverty, is in love with her client. A Lang, born into a renowned well-off family, is an undercover Taiwanese Communist who unknowingly affects Yu Ying’s life. Possibly due to his espionage A Lang disappears abruptly. A Qin, a simple woman, adopted into Family Zhang as future daughter-in-law, emigrates from the tiny offshore island to the South of Taiwan with her disagreeable husband. She encounters her previous lover accidentally in the harbor city. A Qin loses four of her six children and lives unhappily through her whole life. This novel applies a structure of staggering time and space of all happenings. The intention pays off for the plots are well staged and the roads leading to inspiration delicately paved. This technique enables readers to view the scenarios in parallel like on a dynamic triptych.
