本書通過深入分析山本久枝（Hisaye Yamamoto）、湯亭亭（Maxine Hong Kingston）和小川樂（Joy Kogawa）三位第二代北美亞裔女作家的作品，就女性的靜默詩學問題，尤其是小說中的敘述空白及敘述缺省等詩學特徵，與當前的女性主義理論各流派和族裔問題研究學界展開對話，意圖修正北美學界的“歐洲中心論”觀點，並推進女性主義及亞裔美國批評研究。本書作者指出：作為溝通靜默與言說的橋樑，三位第二代北美亞裔女作家的小說作品表達了靜默與言說二者在藝術與生活中從來就缺一不可，二者絕不是非此即彼的關係，弱勢族群在“靜默無聲”的情境中亦能發聲表達自我；若要在“民主環境”中聽見種族或性別他者的聲音，就必須有人站出來瞭解和學習其沉默的言說特徵和話語方式，使其心聲被眾人聽見。
