论王小波《红拂夜奔》的叙事艺术

On the Narrative Art of WANG Xiaobo’s Running in the Night

王小波的《红拂夜奔》是一场关于“有趣”的文本实验。作家先用互文性的叙事结构打开小说空间,增强叙述者与读者的互动。在此基础上,运用荒诞的强性反讽,展现人在权力场域中的荒唐行为和矛盾状态。最后通过“细节蔓延”的方式延展小说内容,形成整体性的繁复风格。小说所追求的“有趣”既是形式与内容的自洽,也是由此产生的一个开放空间,供读者自由进入。

WANG Xiaobo’s Running in the Night is an experimental text that explores the concept of“fun”.The author uses an intertextual narrative structure to create a more engaging experience between the narrator and the reader.On this basis,the novel uses strong irony to reveal the absurd behavior and contradictory state of human beings in positions of power.Finally,by focusing on the“details spreading”within the novel,the content is extended to form a comprehensive and complex style.The pursuit of“fun”in the novel is not only a self-consistency between form and content but also an open space that allows readers to freely explore their interpretation of the text.
