“永远发出自己的声音”——叶兆言新世纪的小说创作

"Everlasting Self-Voicing"—Ye Zhaoyan's Novel Creation in the New Century

在新世纪小说创作中,叶兆言紧紧抓住人最本质、最原始的方面,即人的情、欲、性三位一体的情感与欲望的存在,揭示其丰富性、复杂性和顽固性,从而呈现一个个真实的人类自我。他笔下的形象大都是平庸的灰色调人物,融合了严肃与荒诞、正经与滑稽、善良与猥琐的性格特征;创作手法的开放与包容、小说质地的厚重与细腻、小说风格的求新求变,构成了新世纪叶兆言创作的美学追求。

In his novel creation in the new century,Ye Zhaoyan grasps the most essential and primitive human nature,namely emotions,desires,and sexuality.He revealed their richness,complexity,and stubbornness to present real human selves.The characters in his works are ordinary gray-toned individuals with serious and absurd,solemn and humorous,kind and vulgar personalities;the openness and inclusiveness of his creative techniques,the depth and delicacy of the novel's texture,and the novelty and change in the novel's style constitute the aesthetic pursuit of Ye's creation in the new century.
