孤独者的悲歌:《心是孤独的猎手》的叙述者

A Lament for the Lonely Men:On Lonely Narrators in The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter

精神隔绝与孤独是美国南方女作家麦卡勒斯的作品的一贯主题,小说《心是孤独的猎手》中展示了在工业化背景下人类的孤独与痛苦所带来的精神隔绝,突出表现了人类对自我命运的未知和自我内心的恐惧,将人类孤独无助的精神困境诠释得淋漓尽致。隶属不同叙事层次的叙述者参与或置身于故事之外并客观冷静地勾勒出南方小镇孤寂的场景以及人心的孤独冷漠。五个主人公作为故事内人物聚焦者在小说中发出各自的话语声音,展现小说的多变视角及叙事张力,不仅反映出美国南方在战后人们的内心困惑及孤独的精神状态,也展现出南方社会破败、愚昧与病态的现状。
