摘　　要：汤亭亭、林玉玲与谭恩美是三位颇具代表性的当代华裔美国作家。20世纪末以来,她们先后出版回忆录。与回忆录传统的“事实真实”相比,汤亭亭借由虚构与想象展现具有实验性与创造性的“诗化真实”;林玉玲的学术回忆录尝试以“个人真实”补充理论话语的权威性与普适性;谭恩美借助家庭肖像照挑战“图像真实”的客观性。当代华裔美国作家回忆录在叙事、情感、视觉层面汇聚多维“真实”观。这既体现当代华裔作家日渐成熟的文学创作,也彰显其社会和文化反思意识的增强。Maxine Hong Kingston, Shirley Lim, and Amy Tan are widely regarded as the most significant contemporary Chinese American writers, all of whom have published memoirs since the late 20th century. In her memoir writing, Kingston intertwines fiction and imagination with non-fiction, showcasing an innovative and creative “poetic truthfulness”. In contrast, Shirley Lim's academic memoir focuses on “personal historical truthfulness”, supplementing theoretical discourses with personal affects. Meanwhile, Amy Tan utilizes visual storytelling to challenge the objectivity of Western “media truthfulness”. These instances illustrate a multi-dimensional perspective of “truthfulness” in narrative, affective, and visual aspects, shedding light on the burgeoning artistry and self-reflectivity of contemporary Chinese American writers.
