《我们家》:80后文学的第四个方向

Our Family: Fourth Direction of Late-80s Literature

颜歌通过写作《我们家》,丰富了80后文学的发展维度,为80后文学发展提供了第四个方向,以通俗笔调,写作并不以畅销为目的、或者以专业期刊和专业读者认同为目的的作品。《我们家》是颜歌用喜剧手法写平乐镇的通俗故事,完全用方言写作的初次尝试,也是80后作家群中对方言、技巧和构建文学空间最有追求自觉的作家,终于摆脱文学叙事,进行描写社会这个大课题的勇敢尝试。《我们家》代表着颜歌对畅销文学和纯文学的分野有了更理性的认识,也有了更自觉的选择,同时这也是80后作家群创作的作品中,最具有社会风味的通俗故事。

In Our Family, Yan Ge enriched the dimension of late80s literature and showed it the fourth di rection, writing in vulgar style, not for best seller, or targeting for periodicals and professional readers. In the work, Yan told us a common story occurred in the Pingle town, the comedy marked her initial attempt for writ ing in dialect. It also proved Yan was such a writer that pursued in all her efforts the dialect, technique and literaryspace building, and got rid of literary narrative to take a bold trial of describing society. Our Family made her separating popular literature from pure literature more clear and reasonable, and helped her choosing more consciously. And the work also represents a popular story with the strongest social flavor among all the works by writers group of late 80s.
