Abstract:Guan Lu is a“left-leaning”woman writer who cannot be discounted in the history of Chinese modern literature. Between 1939 and 1945, she was sent by the underground organization of the Chinese Communist Party to work as an undercover to run the journal of “Women's Voice”as its editor in the“76 Devil's Cave”at the Headquarters of the secret agents in Wang Jinwei's government. Before that,her writings on gender,war stories and“illness”as metaphor not only showed her exceptional life and experiences but also drew the historical pictures of complex intersections between gender, the war and the nation. Indirectly,her writings indicated both the connections as well as the disconnections between women's liberation and the Chinese liberation.
