李永平的新作《大河尽头》(2008年出版),在长篇小说的题材和形式上,都有新的开掘和创造。首先,该小说描写的环境,是中国新文学以来不曾涉及的地方,《大河尽头》具有填补空白的意义。小说以婆罗洲为背景,讲述一个生长在南洋的少年,一路溯源而上,寻找生命源泉的故事,婆罗洲这座巨大神秘的岛屿,随着故事的展开和深入,也就有了文学意义上的审美价值,《大河尽头》中的热带雨林、赤道岛屿,也赋予了如同“多少楼台烟雨中”的江南春景,“长河落日圆”的塞上风光般的文学审美气象。第二,《大河尽头》是一部具有自传色彩,以回忆录形式写成的长篇小说,其中蕴蓄着的少年无尽情思,更是给人深遂的人性启迪。那些貌似迷茫荒诞的故事,却由如许动人心魄的语言叙述着,其中内蕴,早已远远超越了道德伦理的范畴,深深地滑入了文学才能表现的领域。这让人多少都能联想起《洛丽塔》和《生死朗读》的文学承载。还有,《大河尽头》的华文写作,体现了李永平内心长年的对汉语的感情和理解,他觉得用中文来描绘那同样缤纷灿烂、别有洞天的婆罗洲雨林世界,简直是鱼帮水、水帮鱼,彼此投缘,小说的语言鲜活灵动。
Li Yongping’s new book The End of the Great River (published in 2008) has new digging and creation in the theme and form of the novel. First of all, the environment described by this novel is a place that has never been touched upon by Chinese new literature. The “end of the river” has the meaning of filling in the gaps. The novel takes Borneo as the background, tells a story of a boy growing up in Nanyang, tracing the source and looking for sources of life. Borneo is a huge mysterious island. As the story unfolds, it also has a literary meaning The beauty of the estuary, the tropical rain forest at the end of the river, and the equatorial islands have given the spectacular literary aesthetics like the Jiangnan Spring Scenery and the Long River Sunset Mountains. Second, the “end of the river” is a biographical novel written in the form of memoirs, in which the innocent and innocent emotions of the young are inspiring humanity. The seemingly confused and absurd stories are narrated in such a moving language that their intrinsic meaning has gone far beyond the scope of morality and ethics and slipped deeply into the areas where literature can express itself. This is how many people are reminiscent of “Lolita” and “life and death reading,” the literary bearing. What’s more, the Chinese writing “at the end of the river” embodies Li Yongping’s long-standing feelings and understanding of Chinese. He believes that using the Chinese language to depict the world of Borneo rainforests that are equally bright and colorful, Help fish, mutual investment, the language of the novel fresh and agile.
