现实性、日常性与审美性：论邵丽“挂职系列”中的官场书写

Criticalism,Realism and Artistry:A Brief Discussion on Shao Li’s Official Writing in “Guazhi Series” Novels

河南作家邵丽从自己挂职体验的现实经历出发创作的“挂职系列”小说,以其对乡土世界的底层世相、官场社会的众生百态、时代病灶的仰观俯察而引起了学界及社会的强烈反响和广泛赞誉,尤其《刘万福案件》,不仅揭示了城乡转型期间百病丛生的社会现实,其双声对话的思辨色彩和复调结构的开放阐释,更保证了作家在面向现实发言时能够保持必要的理性和清醒。与刘震云同年出版的《吃瓜时代的儿女们》对戏剧冲突的着意追求不同,邵丽的“挂职系列”更注重从日常性与生活化的情节中开掘当下现实的种种议题,并努力摆脱官员群体“贪污腐败”的污名,匠心独具地塑造了一批颇有代表性的理想主义受挫的基层官员形象。作为一部以现实生活为蓝本的小说作品,“挂职系列”在对真实和虚构的处理上称不上尽善尽美,但这种探索的得与失、成与败都有其不可替代的价值与意义。

Henan writer Shao Li’s novels of“Guazhi(serve temporary position)series”created from the realistic experience of her own job experience have aroused strong response and praise both in academia and society,for her adequate observations and description on the bottom of the local world,the sentient beings of the officialdom,and the chronic disease of the times.Especially in the article Liu Wanfu Case,it not only reveals the social reality of the disease during the transition period of urban and rural areas,but also proves the writer maintain the necessary rationality when speaking to reality through a two-way dialogue and polyphonic structure.Different from Liu Zhenyun’s pursuit of dramatic conflict in Onlookers in the Internet Age published in the same year,in“Guazhi series”,Shao Li pays more attention to digging into the real issues from the daily life,trying to get rid of the serious stigma of official corruption in the tradtional official writing and creating a group of representative figures of grassroots officials whose idealism frustrated.As novels based on real life,the“Guazhi series”are not perfect in dealing with factual reality and artistic fiction,but the gains and losses,success and failure have their irreplaceable value and significance.
