都市故事的两种不同讲法——以张欣、王安忆为例

Two Different Illustrations of Metropolitan Stories——Taking Zhang Xin and Wang Anyi as Examples

文学中的都市常常呈现出不同的面貌。来自广州的张欣倾向描写都市浮华等"现代性"特征,关注职场白领的事业追求和情感困惑;来自上海的王安忆更看重民间市井的日常生活,善于借助密集的识名性描写来凸显上海独特的文化韵味。两位作家用自己的创作实践,为读者奉献了两种不同类型的文学都市。

Metropolis always presents different faces in the literary works.Zhang Xin,Guangzhou＇s writer,prefers to depict the urban life＇s vanity,such as modernity and so on.Wang Anyi,the Shanghai writer,focuses on the ordinary people＇s common life and is skilled at emphasizing Shanghai＇s unique culture by the virtue of general sense.These two writers present two different kinds of metropolitan life in their creative practice.
