黎紫書原名林寶玲，1971年生於馬來西亞怡保，曾於《星洲日報》擔任記者12年，為馬華在地重要的女作家之一。其小說除了書寫馬共等重要的歷史素材之外，更著重於從人的生命困境出發。本文討論範疇涵蓋其《天國之門》（1999）、《山瘟》（2000）、《出走的樂園》（2005）、《野菩薩》（2011）、《未完‧待續》（2014）諸短篇小說集以及長篇小說《告別的年代》（2010）。 論文首先指出黎紫書以文學獎的參賽為創作起點，一方面借鑒中國作家濃烈而流麗的敘事風格，一方面適時加入地方元素，但其實從初入文壇起，便表現出對某些普遍性主題的關注。其次發展、論證作家希望超越本土，以面向世界自詡的創作走向。最後討論在黎紫書的書寫裡，呈現出何種馬華文學的特殊風貌？她又如何以不同的語言表現和意識型態，回應當今的華語語系脈絡？而在此超越的過程裡，還可能存在著何種隱憂？由此提出對其創作的反思。
