Writer brought us literary feast from multiple perspectives.In the introduction, we introduce Yan Geling`s life and writing , sort out the research of Geling`s novels in recent years. Scholars generally interpret and analyze Yan Geling`s works from multiple perspectives : contemplation and thinking of the human nature, with the in thehighlighting of Fate of women and main consciousness,culture`s complement and identity,and rhetoric, imago,language.In this paper ,we focus on exploring female images , interpreting her representative works of various periods by carefully reading , to grasp writing of survival state of the female.We will illustrate fragile life under ideal halo by analysing Military Theme trilogy in chapter 1.. Ten years of military education, Yan Geling can describe military life through personal experience, she takes emotions into writing, so we can hear the real sound behind the story. "green blood", "a female soldier in whispers," "female`s grass" expose that the ravages and persecution of leftist ideology , also the pursuit of ideal for female figure, yearning for the heroic age. Whether the military or the vast grassland, gave them an invisible set of military regulations. not only obliterating the value of their lives as individuals, but also allowing them to complete the mainstream ideology as their own behavior standard.The right to love and be loved had already retreated to the back of the revolutionary cause, instinctive desire of the natural demands is under extreme repression. These female characters have become the most vulnerable life under ideal the halo.We talk about the human struggle of female characters of Yan Geling`s novel in the Context of West in chapter 2.Yan Geling particularly concern the survival plight of female in context of Western culture for the immigrant experience ,and made choice for the plight and struggle. This writing of the survival female state also reflect the writer's mood of migration . East-West cultural conflict made her in an edge state, Her inherent temperament of East let her become to be a different species of the Western world,she want to integrate into the culture ,but it is impossible because of the culture barrier, so she want to bring this character of the Oriental patience to her literary works, tomatch the western men utility and save by female image. "I"'s escape in the "no way out for coffee", and the smile of Xiaoyu,and Mother's feelings of Fusang are the the beginning of the performance of active resistance. But Mei of "sojourners" accept the East-West cultural conflict first , but jump out of the unreal ideal world, thechoosing and giving up of love ended her struggle to survival environment. In this period, the female subject of Works begin to show the resistance to society and the reality, despite the method is too passive, and even this awareness is weak, but we see that writers have begun to survey East-West cultures and the world by a more in-depth perspective.We interpret that Yan Geling'write about survival state of female in the history torrent in chapter3. Lots of female caracters in her works undergo cruel political persecution, Wenxiu ended the political damage by her life, and ultimately to a bay. However, we can see, Yan Geling as the warm writer, left the hope of surviving for the reader, Under the stormy torrent of political history destruction, the female complete the difficult course from darkness to light .Especially Xu Qunshan and Sun Likun of" White Snake "'s abnomal love under political state , they take care for each other andSoothe the wounded soul with each other in crisis, restore the lost dignity and courage to live, this female's feelings let them return radiance of the individual life. But the "Renhuan" shows us the female dilemma in the realm of political discourse, thousands of years,we adhere the patriarchal system of ethics of a "you must you're your parent if you did not get marriage,and if you have get marriage you must obey your husband " , the females are passive and the state of aphasia, paternity let the "I" have both love and hate for their parents , both desire and fear about the "Electra complex ", many years later "I" obtain relief in a foreign country, the finally dap out of the repression of patriarchal culture, return to normal humanity. Alienation from the political history become writer`s new perspective that described female,and concerned about the real life. Putao`s " To Live Is Better Than to Die " and the Xiaohuan`s "make do philosophy" let them outside of politics free to realize of self-worth.Yan Geling obsessed with female's writing, her image of the female figure in a rich gallery of Chinese literature. her literary world has long effect on the development of Chinese contemporary literature,not only broadens the creative space of overseas literature, but also accelerate the pace of Chinese literature to the world, I believe that Yan Geling will create more literary legend for readers.
