唐娜·塔特的小说《金翅雀》是一部能触动灵魂的成长小说，讲述了一个悲情男孩与一幅免遭毁灭的名画之间的纠葛。小说不仅对美国社会生活有细致的描述，而且对中国元素情有独钟。中国元素在小说中出现频率很高，近50处提及了中国的各个方面，这些中国元素的大量出现说明了中国国际地位的提高和美国社会对中国文化的逐步了解和认同，但这些中国元素的深度和广度还存在不足，且小说所呈现出来的中国人物形象大都比较肤浅甚至猥琐负面。

Donna Tartt’s The Goldfinch is both a coming-of-age novel with exquisitely drawn characters that follows a grieving boy’s entanglement with a small famous painting that has eluded destruction, and a book that stimulates the mind and touches the heart. The novel shows much preference to many Chinese ele?ments except for American social life, though some Chinese characters are negative and vulgar. This essay atempts to analyse the function and identity of the Chinese elements which represent the escalation of China ’s international status.
