Nowadays, Yan Geling is one of the best of the oversea Chinese literary authoress. Since the late 1980s, she began to write novels and her writing career has nearly 30 years. She writes constantly, and keeps high interested in her writing. Yan Geling always pays attention to the survival of mankind. She writes traumatic experience in the life . There is strong sense of the tragedy in her novels, "Our presence is the tragedy everywhere." An important part of Yan Geling's novels is discussing various human survival plights, and showing various people's material tragedy and spiritual tragedy. My paper studies Yan Geling's think of life in a particular time and cultural surroundings. from the tragedy in Yan Geling's novels.The paper is divided into three parts:The first part is about life tragedy in the extreme leftist era. Not only Yan Geling remembers the "Cultural Revolution" strongly, but her soul is sharply shaken by the "Cultural Revolution". Therefore, the introspection of "Cultural Revolution" is the important component of her tragedy writing. The tragedy writing of the "Cultural Revolution" is mainly in three aspects. First, the individual value is neglected; Second, the desires of life are suppressed; Third, the pure soul was mutilated.The second part is about the survival tragedy in overseas countries. Yan Geling feels strongly the pain of life by her immigrant experience. The immigrant always causes the double pain of the material and spiritual. In this chapter, I discuss Yan Geling's various tragedy writings for migrants through three progressive parts, material survival, spiritual world, and deep cultural conflict.The third part is about resistance and redemption which are beyond the writing of tragedy. Yan Geling displays all kinds of tragedies, and continues to go beyond the writing of the tragedy . This exceeded performance marked by a relentless struggle and salvation of the tragic spirit. In the novels of Yan Geling, the characters have three life forms to surpass tragedy, "flee", "death" and "salvation".
