纳博科夫《微暗的火》是典型的后现代实验文本,它以文体混杂、情节零散和意义含混等反传统的文本表现形式,将后现代小说中的"反小说"现象、故事情节结构的断裂以及终极意义的不确定性推向极端,使后现代小说成为自我解构的文本。以《微暗的火》为代表的后现代小说将传统文学的"可读性"转向"可写性",打破了传统现实主义和现代主义文本的封闭性。它大胆尝试,广泛创新,鼓励读者积极参与,使得后现代文本具有了更为广泛的开放性。

Pale Fire by Vladimir Nabokov is a typical postmodern experimental text. It takes its style of hybrid,scattered and vague meaning plot against the traditional text representation. It also leads the phenomenon from Anti novel to fracture of plot structure and the ultimate significance of uncertainty to the extreme.
