游子的城市张望与精神还乡——陈仓中篇小说创作研讨会纪要

A Summary of the Seminar on Chen Cang's Novella Writing

陈仓的中篇小说创作写出了城市化进程中乡村的颓败与衰弱、都市生活中底层外来者的坎坷与磨难,呈现出游子的城市张望与精神归乡。大致呈现出进城和回乡两种叙事模式,常以陈元的视角叙写人们的进城,又常用没走出大山农民的眼光,观照光怪陆离的大都市,呈现出城乡文化的巨大落差。陈仓的中篇小说呈现出诗意化的追求和特征,形成了沉郁悲慨的风格,为新世纪的中篇小说创作添上了浓墨重彩的一笔。

Chen Cang＇s novella writing has portrayed the decadence and decline of the countryside in the urbanization process as well as the ups and downs of underclass outsiders in the urban life,thus demonstrating the wanderers＇ longing for the urban life and their spiritual return. With roughly two narrative modes of going to town and returning home,Chen Cang often tends to portray people＇s going to town in the perspective of Chen Yuan and the projection of the bizarre metropolis from the vision of farmers who have never left their mountain villages,thus showing the huge gap between the urban culture and the rural culture. With his poetic pursuit and traits,Chen Cang has initiated in his novellas a style of melancholy and grief and indignation,thus having contributed much to the novella writing in the new century.
