dc.description.abstract	Some commentators are puzzled by the degree of Li Ang's familiarity with postmodemism On the one hand, it appears that she is familiar with a number of key concepts and practices of postmodermsm. On the other hand, there are very obvious discrepancies between Li Ang's tertiary style and the deeper contents of her story. Her style of writing quite often seems to be an application of postmodemism. However, the deeper contents do not appear to be bound by the dictates of postmodernism Therefore, the relations between her work and postmodemism are ambiguous and controversial. Perhaps the best way to describe her views is to take the metaphor of a kite tied to the ground. She sees the world as a chaotic and fragmented arena m which nothing is sold or substantial but is mitigated by the anchor of community.
