This paper discusses contemporary Taiwanese lesbians' drifting between elite and marginal positions due to differences regarding gender identity and cultural class. The paper is based on Ghost's Carnival, The Crocodile's Journal, and The Last Book of Montmartre, which are novels written by Qiu Miao-jin, an author representative of Taiwanese lesbian literature. The paper explores how Qiu Miao-jin describes the minds of lesbian elites and ponders on homosexuals' loneliness and drifting identity in the society through her novels. Although lesbian elites are in the central position of cultural class, their marginal position in the social system in regards to gender identity separate them from the society. The paper examines the contradiction between gender identity and social role for lesbian elites, and also the special position of lesbian elites caught between centrality and marginality, through reading and analyzing Qui's novels.
