《河岸》超越了一般意义的有关“文革”或“革命”的文学叙事,实质上,在笔者看来,就是人性、人的命运、人的存在的叙事,而重心则是生命存在的叙事。一切都与生命的存在有关,有关“革命”(包括“文革”似的“革命”)的叙事,不过是特定时期人的生命存在状况的社会历史条件的叙事基础,作家在深处真正要表达的,是生命的现实及其可能存在的永恒的思考。“河”与“岸”在小说中就是这样的一个整体,于并列的“命名”下,隐含着“河”与“岸”的相依、对立并寓示着人的不同的命运,寄托着作者对人存在基础和存在状态的象征理解,其所指与人的存在命运的关系相当清晰。 In fact, in my view, “riverbank” goes beyond the general literary narrative of “Cultural Revolution” or “Revolution.” In essence, in my opinion, it is the narration of human nature, human destiny and human existence, while the center of gravity is life Existential narrative. Everything is related to the existence of life. The narration about “revolution ” (including “” Revolution “” Cultural Revolution “) is merely the narrative basis of the social and historical conditions of the existence of human life in a specific period. The real expression in the depths is the reality of life and its possible eternal thinking. In the novel, ”river“ and ”shore“ are just such a whole. Under the parallel ”naming“, there are implies the dependence of ”river“ and ”shore" It shows the different destinies of human beings and pinpoints the author’s symbolic understanding of the existence and existence of human beings. The relationship between the signified and the existence and destiny of human beings is quite clear.
