Abstract:The Exile is a biography written by Pearl S. Buck about her mother Caroline, describing her exile life. Buck used the theme, “home”, to thread the whole book, and through Caroline's missing and remembrance of her homeland, gave an expression to the sadness of dislocation. This paper analyzes “the politics of home” in The Exile from three aspects: geographic homeland, cultural homeland and philosophical homeland, and discusses the different ways of constructing homes and their political meanings as well as the impact of “absence from homes” on Caroline's life, offering a deep understanding about Buck's political view on home.
