守望“小人物”的内心世界——刘庆邦及其短篇小说《咱俩不能死》

To Keep Watch the Inner World of "Zilches"——Liu Qingbang and His Short Story Neither of Us Should Die

“短篇王”刘庆邦在创作中始终立足于矿区与乡间。乡村题材的作品主要描绘小人物的美,谱写田园牧歌;矿区题材的作品除了展现小人物的美外,更多的是展示矿工“无声的死亡”。《咱俩不能死》作为矿区题材的作品之一,却有了新的观照视野,以非同性恋的同性性行为的发生昭示了年轻的矿工顽强的生命意识,揭示了他们异化的外部原因,表达了刘庆邦深厚的人文主义情怀。

Liu Qingbang, the king of short stories, has always been setting his feet in diggings and countryside during his production. His works on countryside mainly describe the beauty of filches and compose idyllic life; besides showing the beauty of zilches＇ beauty, his works on diggings show more about the ＂silent death＂ of miners. As one of the works on the theme of diggings, Neither of Us Should Die has a new point of view. In way of same-sex sexual behavior happening between non-homosexuals, it makes clear to all that the young miners have a strong will of living, and reveals the external reasons of their differentiation, and shows Liu Qingbang＇ s thick humanist thoughts.
