在「蕉風椰雨」這一個配套似的書寫風格幾乎成為每個出身自南洋異國的馬華作家必備必寫的題材之時，黎紫書察覺她的生活與創作題材趨向僵化，於是她毅然辭職，走出國外遠至北京乃至倫敦，陸續寫出了相對於馬華風格之外，具有另一種異國風味的作品。本論文以黎紫書自2007年出走，離開馬來西亞後出版的作品集，如短篇小說《野菩薩》與《未完·待續》、微型小說集《簡寫》、散文集《暫停鍵》四本類型不同作品集為基礎，對其中具有異國題材元素的作品進行文本分析，藉此得知海外生活經驗對黎紫書的創作影響。
本論文共有六章，第一章緒論將說明研究動機與目的、研究方法與文獻回顧。第二章探討黎紫書的生平與創作歷程。第三章則藉由黎紫書出走的原因，延伸至探討馬華作家所面對的困境與機遇。第四章則以黎紫書旅居北京時所作的創作中，那些具有中國元素的散文、微型小說、短篇小說為主要研究對象。第五章則以黎紫書旅居倫敦期間所創作的作品中，那些相對具有歐洲異國風格的散文與短篇小說為主要研究對象。第六章結論，則對此前各章節的研究成果進行總結與歸納。
