On September 24th, the "Face -to -face Face -to -face" series of "Face -to -face of World Literature Capital and Literature", which was co -hosted by Xishanqiao Street, Yuhuatai District, Nanjing and Nanjing Shen Nian, the winner of the Lu Xun Literature Award, attended the sharing session and talked with Li Huizhao, a professor of the School of Literature of Yangzhou University and a reader and friends on the scene.
"Dongting Lake is the inexhaustible source of my creation"
The creation of "Dahu News" is due to the hometown complex. Shen Nian said: "Dongting Lake is the hometown of my life. It is the big lake in my heart. The big lake raised me, shaped me, and nourished my spirit and literature. After so many years, Dongting Lake is still a forever I created The source of not exhausted. "
Dongting Lake was once the largest freshwater lake in my country. Regardless of the Tang Dynasty Liu Yuxi's writing, "Looking at Dongting Mountains, a green snails in the silver plate", or the "titles of distant mountains, swallowed the Yangtze River, Haohao soup, endlessness in the Song Dynasty Fan Zhongyan's writing. "End", or the "Dongting Tianxia Water, Yueyang Tianxia" written by Wei Yongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, all attracted the mighty trend of Dongting Lake. Time is changing. With the human habitation and lakes, the water area of Dongting Lake is not as good as one -third of its heyday.
"This change has not made a great impact on me when I was a kid, but when people reached middle age, they had a deeper reflection on the topic of environmental protection. They had a more clear understanding of the natural ecology and produced a lot of photos of life." Shen Nian said that various factors were combined to form this creation.
Shen Nian has been a reporter for 8 years. He has traveled to the lake area many times to understand the livelihood, economic and social changes in the lake area. Every time I listen to the local fishermen and environmentalists, telling the local life, and the past and present of the lake area from the photos and materials of the artists and photographers have triggered his thinking. "I think I have been asking for the lake area and never give up."
Shen Nian spent a year to write this book about Dongting Lake. With his affection and nostalgia for his hometown, he devoted his emotions to the animals, plants, and characters in the pen. He said that this emotional attitude is not high above, but an equal gaze and dialogue. "I write each grass and every tree as the most important life in nature."
Write the view of life and death of people in the lake area
"Dahu News" involves the death plot of five people. Shen Nian realized that after the book was published, he realized that he wrote so many characters' death. He said he had worried whether some critics or readers felt that he was deliberately attracting attention to the ups and downs of the story with death. In fact, everything is a record of loyalty to nature.
The death of the "Lake News", which combines novels and prose, shows a variety of styles, is full of recognition and compassion in the living conditions of the people in the lake district deep in the heart of Shen Nian.
Shen Nian said that people living in the lake district are different. They regard death as a natural arrangement. He took the life situation of his hometown as an example: "In the lake area more than 10 years ago, the eyes were full of shabby brick housing. Villages and towns around the lake area are great threats. When the flood comes, the towns living in the flood storage area are not guaranteed. In addition, extreme weather, the death incident occurs, and the fishermen living on the lake are not too afraid of death. ","
In the past work visits and follow -up team to investigate the team, Shen Nian had done exchanges with many fishermen. aloof. These stories and emotions are also reflected in his works.
Cross -liberals let prose release personality
Shen Nian wrote poems and wrote novels. Two techniques blended together in the writing of "Lake News", showing a text architecture with tension and charm. It has both the novel leaping, vigorous imagination and expansion of details, as well as poetic languages.
How to write prose? Shen Nian believes: "Writing in a modern context must have modern narrative significance." He felt that if prose is still written according to the traditional discourse system, the writer will not be able to surpass the classics, fall into the public discourse system, and lose their personality. Finally, everyone is like everyone is like Writing the same book, this has always been vigilant.
Can prose writing be fictional? Shen Nian feels that prose and novel fictional properties are different. The fiction of the novel is out of nothing, weaving a fictional net. Prose is based on real experiences, emotions, and details. "There is a middle student", which cuts and modify the material to make it more in line with the emotions or emotions that the writer wants to pass. "When there is such a cognition and state, it will not simply entangle in the topic of‘ the fiction is not prose, whether prose can be fictional ’.”
As long as any writing enters subjective expression, displacement will occur. Shen Nian said: "Prose writing is the same. When we stand on the real emotion of the main body, we should not be trapped by the word" fiction "."
In Shen Nian's cognition, the fiction does not necessarily cause damage to prose and style. Instead, he felt that the elements such as novels, poetry, drama, and other elements were added to the prose, realizing the openness of the style, and some wonderful chemical reactions caused by prose, which produced a different look from the past and more people's works. "The story is true or not. The most important thing is whether everyone can feel in the reading that the emotional resonance and resonance of the fate of these characters I wrote."
