张爱玲以现代派的手法、古典小说的笔调创作了许多优秀小说。《倾城之恋》便是她用“用参差的对照的手法写出现代人的虚伪之中有真实,浮华之中有素朴”[1]的优秀之作。小说用浮华的语言勾勒出浮华的人物,底子却是素朴的,作者用悖论式的手法揭示了人内心的末日意识、虚无与苍凉感,人生的孤独与寻找,安稳与飞扬…… Eileen Chang created many excellent novels by means of modernist style and classic style. “Love in the Fallen City” is the outstanding work she uses to write down the hypocrisy among the modern people with realism and glitz in the way of contrasting controls. In the novel, the flashy characters are sketched out by the flashy language. The foundation is simple. The author reveals the apocalyptic consciousness, the nothingness and the sense of desolation, the loneliness and the search of life, the stability and the flying in a paradoxical way.
