职业的和业余的小说家 [Book] Douban
author: 张定浩 publishing house: 山东文艺出版社 2017 - 4
生活何为?小说何为?对此的思考和探索当然是写作者最为重要的行为。然而,生活的意义乃至小说的意义,是以何种形式呈现,在不同写作者那里又各有不同。我比较服膺罗兰•巴特曾使用过的一个类比,即洋葱与桃杏。有些人觉得生活应该是像桃杏那样的水果,在果肉内部一定有某种坚定存在且让人心安的核心,生活的意义就在于找到这样的核心,甚至不惜代价建构一个这样的核心;而另一些人则认为生活是如洋葱般一层层展开的生活,“没有心,没有核,没有秘密,没有约简的原理,有的只是本身外壳的无限性,包裹的无非它外表的统一性”。我是站在洋葱这边的人。在我想来,一个认真生活的人,一个诚实的写作者,他们在穿越一层层的泪水抵达洋葱中央之际,其实遭遇到的也不会再是虚无,而会是一个更好的自己。

"It's just a matter of trial and error. You try something, it doesn't work. You try it another way, maybe it works even less well, or maybe it works a little bit better. It really is the dark room that Henry James describes. It's a sort of groping, and continuously trying things out, and understanding why something fails. The key is to try to understand what are the elements that are failing, and why, and then you move on to the next draft with a little bit more of clarity."
