Hikaru Lee 李屏瑤

Hikaru Lee 李屏瑤 is a writer and cat lover born in 1984. Her publications include Phototropism, a novel; Sleepless, a play; and A Taipei Family, a Girl Undocumented, an essay collection. Her collection of interviews of LGBT people in 100 professions was shortlisted for the prestigious Taipei Literary Grant. The Japanese translation of Phototropism is forthcoming in 2022. 

Hikaru is currently the chairperson of the LGBTQ+ NPO Taiwan Equality Campaign, equallove.tw. An activist by day and a writer by night, Hikaru is trying to spend more time at her desk rather than in the street. Having read a widely published suicide note by two high school girls who died decades ago, confessing it was too difficult to survive in normative society, Hikaru has decided that an alternative to the two girls’ message is to change heteronormative society if it is not compatible with us.

參與社運,現任彩虹平權大平台理事長。倡議是前線,書寫是後方,最近練習在書桌前坐得久一點,而不是東奔西跑。曾經有兩個女孩在遺書寫:「當人是很辛苦的,使我們覺得困難的,不是一般人所想像的挫折或壓力,而是在社會生存的本質就不適合我們。」許多年之後,我已經活過她們的年紀之後,如果可以再多補充,我希望句子可以變成這樣:「在社會生存的本質不適合我們,那我們就去改變這個社會。」
