谭恩美
美国华裔女作家谭恩美所著长篇小说。“喜福会”是移民美国的母亲们为打麻将而取的聚会名。作者通过描写四对母女间的代沟和隔阂冲突,反映了华裔母族文化和异质文化相遇而生的碰撞与兼容以及两种文化在碰撞中对自我文化身份的艰难求索。内容简介:四位性格、命运各异的中国女性抛却国难家仇,移居美国,以及她们各自在美国出生、成长的女儿的生活经历。作为第一代移民的母亲们虽已身在异国,却仍是彻头彻尾的中国女性,国难家仇可以抛在身后,却无法抛却与祖国的血脉亲情。而在美国出生的女儿们,虽外表看来与母亲非常相像,却是迥异于中华人的价值观与环境下成长起来的,并不得不亲身承受两种文化与价值观的冲撞。母女之间既有深沉执著的骨肉亲情,又有着无可奈何的隔膜怨恨,既相到关心又相到伤害。不过,超越了一切的仍是共同的中华母亲,是血浓于水的母女深情。
