Born in the 1920s, Wong started a career of writer and potter in order to create a better understanding between China and America and to find recognition as a Chinese American woman in both worlds. However, the contradictions and conflicts that result from the encounter of both cultures in her two books foreground instead that behind Wong s apparent assimilationism hides a more subversive and undermining discourse. Taking Lisa Lowe s definition of cultural hybridity as a starting point, this study revisits Wong s works through the lens of the competing and conflicting values inherent to Jade Snow s self-definition as a Chinese American woman. Furthermore, by opposing Wong s ceramics to her autobiographies, this study seeks to give yet another perspective on Wong s cultural hybridity. Whereas words highlight the tensions between Chinese and American values, her earthenwares emphasize the harmonious combination of both traditions.
