在梦境中重建现实——帕特里克·怀特小说《风暴眼》的意识流解读

Reconstruction of Reality in Dreamland——An Interpretation of the Stream of Consciousness in The Eye of the Storm

《风暴眼》集中体现了怀特对意识流手法的轻松驾驭。小说中自吟自语的内心独白、恣意跳跃的自由联想、朦胧缥缈的梦境、空间与时间的任意置换,生动地演绎了人物的复杂心理现实与情感流变,并在思绪流动和梦境呓语中建构了纷繁复杂的客观世界。

The Eye of the Storm is one of masterpieces of Australian writer Patrick White. It represents his great achievement in the use of stream of consciousness technique. The employment of smooth interior monologue, free association, the obscure dreamland and the movement of time and space vividly shows the characters＇ complex mentality as well as emotional flow and also constructs the complicated real world in the flowing thoughts and dream ravings.
