实在的苦难与边缘的生存——评余华的长篇小说《活着》

The Concrete Hardship and Existence on the Verge ——On Yu Hua's long fiction Alive

《活着》发表之前,余华一直是和先锋文学联系在一起的,但《活着》的发表,让读者看到余华并不总是和先锋保持一致。这部小说摆脱了形式的探索和先锋性,开始关注人物和意义,小说中的人物不再是一些符号,而有了自己的声音和独立的意义,作者所表达的苦难也是实在的、具体的。《活着》显示了余华对价值和意义的认同,也流露了他对过于追求形式的先锋文学的某种反拨。

Before the delivery of Alive,Yu Hua had been always kept up with the pioneer literature. But when Alive was brought out,we find Yu Hua is different from the pioneer literature. This fiction throws off the exploration and pioneer nature of form and the author begins to be attentive to the character and meaning. The characters in the fiction are not signs.In addition,the hardship of the author becomes concrete. Alive reveals that Yu Hua recognize the value and meaning,and displays he is tired of the pioneeer literature because it's too chase form to be caught on.
