“新寓言”人生的悲喜——莫迪亚诺《暗店街》的叙事美学

The Joys and Sorrows of New Fable’s life--The narrative aesthetics of Patrick Modiano’s Rue des Boutiques Obscures

莫迪亚诺是迄今为止兼获龚古尔文学奖和诺贝尔文学奖两个文学大奖的唯一一位作家。他的代表作《暗店街》讲述了一个自我找寻、自我指认的故事。作者用后现代的写作技巧,来传达战后人文精神的忧虑与重建,以一个失忆的“小人物”的形象,映射出现实生活中的芸芸众生的生存困境和心理危机。莫迪亚诺作为“新寓言派”的代表之一,将历史记忆与生命哲思汇聚在碎片化叙事拼贴而成的小说结构中,用诗性的语言和引人遐想的留白来揭示人生的厚度和思想的深度。

Patrick Modiano is the only writer who has won Le Prix Goncourt and The Nobel Prize in literature until now.His representative work Rue des Boutiques Obscures tells a story of self-search and selfidentification.The author uses postmodern writing skills to convey the worries and reconstruction of postwar humanistic spirit,and reflects the survival dilemma and psychological crisis of all living beings in real life with the image of a“nobody”with Amnesia.Modiano as one of the representatives of“The New Fable”,combines historical memory and life philosophy into the novel structure,made up of fragmented narration,and reveals the richness of life and the depth of thought with poetic language and imaginative blank.
