When such confessional flow rushed into China in 1980 s, it provided Chinese poets a confessional voice to write and investigate significant issues of world, life and society. Thus, writing in different languages and periods does not stop them to implement the same mission: to adopt a confessional voice, represent trauma as blackness and darkness in women experience and bring light, meanwhile, achieve one’s own truth and liberation.
