谭恩美的第三部小说《灵感女孩》从姐妹关系的角度再现了中美文化碰撞、交流与融合的过程。但不难发现,谭恩美在书中所描绘的中国姐姐的超常能力、鬼语言说、轮回转世以及充满异域风情的中国故事,仍是在不自觉地迎合美国主流意识对中国的印象。小说虽仍以“和”收尾,但在此过程中,是中国姐姐对美国妹妹“无条件的爱”最终促成了中西的融合。以上种种无不显示了谭恩美挥之不去的“东方主义情结”。
Amy Tan’s third novel, Inspiration Girl, recreates the process of collision, exchange and integration of Chinese and American cultures from a sister-sister perspective. However, it is not hard to find that Amy Tan’s extraordinary ability, ghost language, reincarnation and exotic Chinese stories portrayed in this book are still unconsciously cynically impressed on China by mainstream American consciousness. Although the novel is still ending with “and ”, but in the process, it is the Chinese sister ’s “unconditional love ” to the American sister that eventually led to the integration of China and the West. All of the above all shows Amy Tan lingering “Orientalism complex ”.
