时代三部曲 #1

黄金时代

Rate this book
这是以文革时期为背景的系列作品构成的长篇。发生“文化大革命”的二十世纪六七十年代,正是我们国家和民族的灾难年代。那时,知识分子群体无能为力而极“左”政治泛滥横行。作为倍受歧视的知识分子,往往丧失了自我意志和个人尊严。在这组系列作品里面,名叫“王二”的男主人公处于恐怖和荒谬的环境,遭到各种不公正待遇,但他却摆脱了传统文化人的悲愤心态,创造出一种反抗和超越的方式:既然不能证明自己无辜,便倾向于证明自己不无辜。于是他以性爱作为对抗外部世界的最后据点,将性爱表现得既放浪形骸又纯净无邪,不但不觉羞耻,还轰轰烈烈地进行到底,对陈规陋习和政治偏见展开了极其尖锐而又饱含幽默的挑战。一次次被斗、挨整,他都处之坦然,乐观为本,获得了价值境界上的全线胜利。作者用一种机智的光辉烛照当年那种无处不在的压抑,使人的精神世界从悲惨暗淡的历史阴影中超拔出来。
