Chu Tien-wen's middle period novels the City of Summer, Fin-de-Siècle Splendour, Notes of a Desolate Man largely paint tangled sentiments and the contributors of them -- desires. To peruse these novels in the perspective of desires, we can look through how they are delicately bedecked with the author's sensible contemplation with regard to emotions, life and the society. Chu seems bound to establish her own systemic「the aesthetics of desires」. From the psychoanalysis, consumer society, and gender study's points of view, it is of extraordinary significance to analyze the desires for flesh, materials, and homosexual presented in her novels, and probe how the desires for flesh are used to offset the incompleteness of sentiments, the desires for materials resist the nihility of life, the desires for homosexual reflect the society's establishment.
