Taiwanese author and feminist activist Mei-feng Chu gained widespread attention in December 2001 due to a scandal involving a leaked video of her engaging in a sexual act with a married man, distributed on CD by Taiwan’s Scoop magazine. Despite this controversy, Chu’s literary contributions remain significant and influential. Her groundbreaking novel “Notes of a Desolate Man” delves into themes of homosexuality, gender identity, and cultural identity in Taiwan. Other notable works by Chu include “Apropos of Nothing”, “The Unbearable Dreamworld of Champa the Driver”, and “The Opposite of Love”. As an activist and writer, Chu has become a respected voice for the LGBTQ+ community in Taiwan and beyond.
