《你是一条河》:女性角色的消解、反抗与建构

You Are a River: The Disintegration,Resistance and Construction of Female Characters

池莉的小说《你是一条河》以独特的女性视角,从母亲、妻子和情人、女性个体三个角度,成功塑造了辣辣这一复杂、立体、真实的女性形象。作为母亲,她兼任“神圣慈母”和“粗暴恶母”的双重角色,是对文学中母亲形象单一神圣化书写的大胆消解。作为妻子和情人,她自由前卫的贞洁观与务实理智的婚恋观是对爱情神话和男性权力的无声反抗。作为女性个体,她身上萌发出女性建构主体的可能性。辣辣使女性从高高在上的圣坛回到真实的生活和严酷的存在本身,并以其所独有的生命原力与反抗精神构建起特殊的意义。

CHI Li's novel,You Are a River,successfully portrays the complex and three-dimensional female image of Lala from three perspectives:mother,wife and lover,and woman,with a unique female perspective.As a mother,she concurrently plays the dual roles of"sacred and kind mother"and"rough and evil mother",which is a bold deconstruction of the singular and sacred portrayal of mother images in literature.As a wife and lover,her free and avant-garde views on chastity and pragmatic and rational views on marriage and love are silent rebellions against love myths and male power.As a female individual,she sprouts the possibility of constructing a female subject.Lala brings women back to their true life and harsh existence from the high altar,and constructs a special meaning with their unique life force and rebellious spirit.
