生存的艰难与平凡的伟大——简评傅恒的长篇小说《天地平民》

Hardships of Survival and Grandeur of Commonness——Briefly Reviewing Fu Heng's Full-length Novel The Common People in the World

傅恒的长篇小说《天地平民》改变了以往反腐败小说的套路,紧紧把握人物的命运和灵魂,直击当下人在社会的处境,把反腐败题材的小说提升到一个哲学人类学的高度。从写作本身来说,强化了写作的难度,大大提升了小说、特别是反腐败题材文学作品的艺术水准;从文学经验上来说,扩展了反腐败作品的边界;从叙事的方式来说,为小说叙事提供了一种全新的表达方式。

Fu Heng＇s full-length novel The Common People in the World changes the long-used package of the past anticorruption novels, firmly takes command of the lots and souls of the characters, directly describes the social situations their his characters are in, and hence brings novels centering round anti-corruptions to a height of philosophical anthropology, So far as the writing itself is concerned, the degree of difficulty in writing is intensified, the artistic standards of literary works with anti-corruption as the theme are immensely heightened; in the case of literary experiences, the boundaries of anti-comuption works are broadened; as far as the narrative modes are concerned, this novel offers a brand-new narrative mode to novel narration.
