Early life


Li was born in Taiwan and her native language is Chinese. She began studying Japanese at the age of 15.[2] In 2013, she moved to Japan to study at Waseda University and has been living there since.[3]

Li Qinfeng is a pen name. "Li" is derived from a piece of Chinese classical literature, "Three Lis in Ci (詞中三李)", which refers to three famous Chinese poets Li Yu, Li Bai and Li Qingzhao. "Qin (琴)" is pronounced as "Koto" in Japanese, which is a word she has always liked. "Feng (峰)" is derived from a Chinese poem by Wang Guowei.[4]


Writing


In 2017, Li's work Solo Dance was awarded the Gunzo Prize for New Writers.[5] She is known for addressing LGBT topics in her work[6] and has been interviewed for her representation of same-sex relationships between women.[7] Li became the first Taiwanese writer to win the Akutagawa Prize in 2021, for her work "An Island Where Red Spider Lilies Bloom".[8]
