国民人格的变形镜像——谈贾平凹的《老生》

Deformed Mirror Image of National Personality——On Jia Pingwa's Laosheng

贾平凹的长篇新作《老生》自出版后备受关注,这是一部具有强烈批判意识的小说,其批判的矛头所向就是"国民性"。《老生》并非一部传统意义上的现实主义小说,而是运用了夸张、变形、戏谑、意象性等叙事手法,所呈现的是一种关于书写对象的变形镜像。

Jia Pingwa＇s new novel Laosheng is so much concerned since its publication. It is a critical novel with its target, “national personality”. Laosheng is not a traditional realism work. It applies such narrative methods as exaggeration, distortion, banter, and imagism, which make it a deformed mirror image of the object.
