近年来,文学浙军日益壮大,硕果累累。作家们紧扣时代旋律,贴近现实生活,创作出一批不同体裁、不同题材、不同风格的优秀文学作品,并在国内外引起较大反响,迎来了一个新的高潮。

讴歌时代精神,用文学传递正能量

文学浙军在重大社会和历史题材创作上取得的成绩最为丰硕。

2014年8月,电视连续剧《历史转折中的邓小平》在央视首播,收视率居高不下。作为该剧本编剧之一的黄亚洲,随即推出同名图书。同电视剧的火爆一样,此书一经出版,立刻引发读者热烈追捧。据黄亚洲透露,这是他近年投入心血最多的一部作品,在充分尊重史实的基础上进行适当的艺术加工。全书以邓小平以非凡的魄力进行近十年的改革为主要创作线索,描述了基础薄弱的新中国获得重生的希望,向读者展示了一个时代的探索与选择。

剧作家钱林森创作的《绝命后卫师》,是一部讴歌革命历程、书写人间真情的小说。他同时也把它改编为电视连续剧剧本。创作时无数次被感动得热泪盈眶的钱林森坦言,之所以把红军长征时的红三十四师作为小说素材,是因为闽西儿女视死如归、为革命事业淌尽最后一滴鲜血的赤胆忠心令他深深震撼,他想把这段历史展现给更多读者。

报告文学作家孙侃的最新力作《“两山”之路——“美丽中国”的浙江样本》于2017年2月正式出版。这是孙侃用时两年,倾尽心血、精心打磨的长达25万言的作品。作为省内重要的多产作家,孙侃每年出版数部长篇报告文学作品,近几年有《吴斌:中国最美司机》《烈火中的青春》《“最美爸爸”黄小荣》《烈火雄心》《以美铸魂》等十余部,获得不错反响。其中,《中国快递桐庐帮》一书揭开了浙江桐庐民营快递公司崛起之谜,探寻其道路,指出其影响与意义,引起海外的关注。孙侃认为,文学更多的应表现现实生活,给人以正能量的作品更具意义和价值。

与孙侃一样,夏真和王毅也始终关注社会,叙写社会热点。前几年,这对作家夫妇曾合作过《特殊使命》《跨越:杭州湾跨海大桥纪实》等报告文学作品,成为浙江文坛的一段佳话。2016年10月,夫妻俩再度携手创作出版了以宁波一社区党委书记俞复玲为原型的长篇报告文学《小巷总理》以质朴的语言和大量鲜活的事例、素材,呈现了一名基层干部的责任和担当。

直面现实,写出丰富多元的社会和人性

“我的下一步写作不会是谍战剧”,麦家早在2011年在微博上透露他将告别谍战题材。麦家近年创作出了一批以《日本佬》《畜生》为代表的中、短篇小说,并在《人民文学》《小说月报》等国内著名文学期刊发表,赢得评论界叫好。麦家的这些作品无论题材、主题、叙事角度还是表现手法上,都打破了以往自己谍战题材的风格,带着丰富多元、变化不断的个人色彩,值得读者细细研读。

王旭烽曾供职于杭州中国茶叶博物馆,于是与茶叶有了不一般的情缘。虽然“茶人三部曲”当中的前两部曾获茅盾文学奖,但她认为最重要的一部关于茶叶的作品,应当是2015年12月出版的《一片叶子》。这部带有纪实性的散文随笔集子,以第一人称为叙述主体,以农历二十四节气为建构,以茶人、茶事为基本线索,详细叙述了安吉白茶的前世今生,寄托了作者天人合一、万物共生的美好境界。

2016年1月,方格子出版了《一百年的暗与光——中国麻风防治浙江记录》,这是一部记录60余年来浙江省麻风病防治工作的长篇报告文学。正如方格子所说:“我们生活的时代,麻风病依然存在。而在人类文明史上,从来没有一种疾病像麻风一样,病患在担负肉体无尽痛苦的同时,还必须承担来自社会的歧视及道德的审判。”作者用悲天悯人的大情怀,意图用文字还原生命的尊严、唤醒社会的关爱,读来令人动容。

浦子的长篇小说《大中》在2017年1月份出版,这是作者用16年时间精心打造的“王庄三部曲(《龙窑》《独山》《大中》)”的最后一部,全书似是一部宏伟壮丽的诗篇,展现了王庄三个家族在新的历史时期发生的种种恩怨。有评论家认为,其笔触直接剖析人的灵魂,贴近历史和人性的本真。

李靖在2016年11月出版的长篇小说《四十年家国》,以洋洋洒洒的80余万字,描述了史称“铜城”的浙江金华从清末到抗战胜利期间可歌可泣的一段历史故事,也是一部直面现实的好作品。另外,陈富强在近年也出版了多部以“电力”为主题且接地气的文学作品。

承继传统,各门类文学创作百花竞放

浙江在现代文学史上,相继涌现了鲁迅、茅盾、郁达夫、徐志摩等一大批作家,曾有占据中国文坛半壁江山的美誉。如今,浙江作家群体在诗歌、散文、小说、儿童文学、网络文学、类型文学等各个领域多方面发展,形成了老中青三代作家相映成辉的格局。

浙江文坛上优秀的散文作家大有人在。2016年3月,卢江良出版了散文集《灵魂的指向》,这是一部有诚意的作品,因为书里所述的都同作者的生活息息相关,同他的心灵血肉相连,同他的思想融会贯通。其他像马叙、帕蒂古丽、孙敏瑛等在国内也颇有知名度,这几年常有新作发表、获奖。

2016年5月,上海三联书店出版发行了《原则诗选——浙江诗坛原色风景展示》。据悉,“原则”是创立于上世纪90年代、以浙江诗人为主的民间诗歌创作群体,收入本书的220多首诗歌大多是浙江籍的陈星光、达达等创作的。李郁葱的诗集《浮世绘》于2015年10月出版,詩歌以当代人的个人记忆,从理想的高度触摸当代生活,用诗歌触及日常生活,触及形形色色的人物。除此,像柯平、邹汉明等上世纪八九十年代就已成名的诗人仍笔耕不辍。

浙江的儿童文学作家群,最具代表的人物应属方卫平。他除了大量创作外,还匀出很多精力致力于研究浙江儿童文学的发展,并常有专著出版。另外,网络文学也是一个大门类,像浙江籍网络文学作家创作的《甄嬛传》《芈月传》等相继被搬上电视荧屏。endprint

更值得一提的是,浙江的文學创作后继有人。越来越多的90后作者随着年龄、阅历的增长和创作手法的成熟,开始被主流文坛认可,被吸收为各级作协会员。在每年7月末的中国90后作家联谊会上,总能看见多张浙江籍90后作家的面孔。

凭着这股良好的创作势头和喜人成绩,这支活跃于文坛的“文学浙军”定能跻身全国前列。

Writers in Zhejiang Active

By Fu Shuqing

In recent years, writers in Zhejiang have been trying to regain a literary reputation. In the 20th century, the province boasted a galaxy of writers whose accomplishments are chapters of the history of modern Chinese literature. Nowadays, contemporary writers in Zhejiang are following their forefathers footsteps. They have created quite a few influential works.

Attention to the Modern Times

Writers of today in Zhejiang never hesitate to examine the yesteryears and the now and here.

In August 2014, CCTV, the biggest television network in China, screened , a television series. It ranked high in the rating system. Huang Yazhou, one of the major scriptwriters of the series and writer based in Zhejiang, soon launched a printed version of the television blockbuster. He commented that the script was the biggest one of the projects he had done in recent years. Based on historical facts, he artistically traced a period of about ten years covering the major part of the 1980s when Deng Xiaoping brought China back into modernization and pioneered into a bright future through reform and opening up policies.

Qian Linsen, a playwright based in Zhejiang, wrote a novel titled , which is based on the heroic deeds of the 34th division of the Red Army during the Long March in the 1930s. The division sacrificed itself in a bid to give the main forces of the Red Army time to cross Xiang River and break away from the deadly besiege. The novel was adapted to a television series, which was screened on CCTV in October 2016.

Nonfiction writers are dedicated to realities.

Sun Kan, a key reporter of our times, published , a book that explores the value of ecology and promotes the “Theory of Two Mountains”, in February 2017. A prolific writer, he has published over ten nonfictions about Zhejiang in recent years. One of the books he has written is about the express delivery companies started up by the people from Tonglu, a rural county in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. These delivery companies are now a dominating force in the industry. The book attracted the attention of overseas readers.

Xia Zhen and Wang Yi, a man and wife team, has written nonfictions about Zhejiang. One is about Hangzhou Bay Bridge; another is about full-scale reconstruction projects Zhejiang did for Qingchuan, a region destroyed in a 2008 killer earthquake in Sichuan Province. In October 2016, the couple published a long nonfiction titled , featuring Yu Fuling, a community administrator who helps families handle troubles in life.endprint

Fang Gezi penned a book titled . The nonfiction looks back at the provinces painstaking efforts to wipe out leprosy and help lepers over a period of more than 60 years.

Fiction writers in Zhejiang perform pretty well. Mai Jia, best known for his spy novels, has published some bestsellers, which have been adapted to films and television series. In 2011, he revealed in his blog that he would no longer write spy novels. Since then he has published novelettes and some short stories in some literary magazines. In January 2017, Pu Zi published , the finale of a trilogy he wrote about his hometown. In November 2016, Li Jing published a history novel titled set in Jinhua, a central city in Zhejiang.

Zhejiang abounds with essayists and poets. Moreover, it is worth mentioning that the province boats a generation of young writers who first publish novels exclusively on the internet.

Wang Xufeng, a fiction writer and prizewinner of Mao Dun Literature Prize for her trilogy novels about tea farmers, recently published a collection of essays dedicated to the theme of tea. Lu Jiangliang published a collection of essays. Ma Xu, Patiguli, and Sun Minying, all essayists of national renown, have published new essays.

Many young writers are cutting a figure on the national stage. They are being widely recognized by the mainstream literary circles. Many have joined writers associations at different levels.endprint
