虹影是英国华文文学的代表作家之一,她的主要作品中充满了对于历史、现状、家国、个人的切肤体会和深刻反思,其根源不仅在于她私生女的身份,更是在于从父辈到虹影、从原乡到他乡、从母国到他国的家族离散情结。离散为虹影的创作提供了自由的空间,但其作品证明,当初的离散是为了后来的回归并抵达心灵的归宿。 Hong Ying is one of the representative writers of Chinese literature in Britain. Her main works are full of experiencing and profound reflection on history, current situation, family and individuals. The reason is not only because of her illegitimate daughter, but also because From parents to Hong Ying, from hometown to his hometown, from the home country to the family of another country complex. Discretization provides a free space for the creation of Hong Ying, but its work proves that the original dispersion was for the later return and the arrival of the spiritual home.
