As an important member of the northeast new generation writers,Shuang Xuetao poured the Northeast memory into the furnace of novel creation,supplemented by refined narrative rhetoric strategies,constantly strengthened the artistic shaping power of the novel,and refined the remarkable rich achievements of the new generation novel creation.But to some extent,the Northeast in shuangxuetao’s works can be regarded as a space rejected by the author,full of the writer’s unique and secret narrative style.Shuang Xuetao constantly tries to enter the possibility of northeast narration from different angles,which also reflects the inheritance and variation of the Traditional Northeast narration by the new generation of northeast novelists.Taking narrative rhetoric as the starting point,this paper restores the Northeast background of shuangxuetao’s novels,and discusses the inheritance and fission of the new generation of northeast young writers represented by shuangxuetao to the Traditional Northeast narrative by decrypting their disassembly and restoration of northeast culture.The specific structure is as follows:The first chapter discusses the Northeast background of shuangxuetao’s novels,mainly from the two aspects of Northeast regional picture and humanistic reality.The map of Northeast China consists of three parts: nature,city and industry.The natural landscape of Northeast China is characterized by the dry and cold snow country,which indirectly catalyzes the formation of the novel;The northeast city picture refers to the impression of Liao and Shen in the novel.Tiexi Yanfen street,Hongqi square and other urban coordinates link the past and become witnesses of the development of Northeast China;The industrial landscape of Northeast China points to the rusty history.The elements of workers and factories can be seen everywhere in his novels.Trains and railways are also a metaphor for the industrial history of Northeast China.The humanistic reality of Northeast China consists of two parts: the glory and pain of Northeast China and the real life and people of Northeast China.As the "eldest son of the Republic",Northeast China once shouldered the heavy burden of industrial development in New China,but it inevitably caused many regrets in the period of economic transformation.Shuang Xuetao tells the bitterness and bitterness of his father’s generation and describes the helplessness and bitterness of the world.The second chapter analyzes the narrative strategy of shuangxuetao’s novels from the perspective of multiple narrative focus,humorous narrative language and absurd narrative techniques.Firstly,shuangxuetao skillfully uses the cross narrative strategy of multiple focus,breaks the meta story with fragmented narrative,and re establishes the overall structure of the story with highly tension and personalized multiple narrative focus.Secondly,humorous narrative language is not only the embodiment of shuangxuetao’s narrative ability,but also the way the subject deliberately chooses to cut into the world.Shuangxuetao’s humorous narrative language is mainly divided into three types: ridicule humor,upside down cold humor and rejection bystander humor.Thirdly,the absurd narrative technique marks the introversion of shuangxuetao’s novels.He turned his attention to the individual’s Secret psychological corner,exposing the sense of alienation between people and the boredom and monotony of step-by-step life.Through the extreme description of the pain of soul and flesh in the survival of modern people,this paper makes endless doubts and criticism on the morality and values in the development of modern society.The third chapter analyzes the inheritance and variation of shuangxuetao’s Modern Northeast narrative.According to the contents of the first two chapters,this chapter discusses three problems: realistic style,escape theme and the setting of character relationship.The first is the realistic style.A large number of northeast elements and the writing and criticism of northeast reality make his novels have the realistic style of sticking to the ground;However,the integration of postmodern narrative techniques makes the realism in shuangxuetao’s novels different from the traditional realism style that emphasizes the typical environment and typical characters.Whether it is multiple narrative perspectives,humorous narrative language or absurd narrative techniques,it is the variation and Transcendence of traditional realism.The second is to escape the theme.The modern northeast writers represented by Xiao Hong and Xiao Jun were forced to exile from the northeast to Guannei,and the Northeast turned into endless homesickness in their works;In the new northeast narrative represented by shuangxuetao,leaving the northeast is the active choice to break through to the ideal.Thirdly,taking the father son relationship as an example to investigate the character setting,the father son relationship in Modern Northeast narrative is mostly the fracture of old and new ideas under the background of time and world,and the estrangement between father and son is the active choice under the oppression of patriarchy;In the narrative of the new generation in Northeast China represented by shuangxuetao,the estrangement between father and son is more a passive choice in emotion,an ideological rupture and spiritual rupture under the background of the times.The fourth chapter analyzes the value and deficiency of shuangxuetao’s novels.Take shuangxuetao as the starting point of peeping into contemporary northeast writers and study it as a node cultural phenomenon.It is common in his works to observe and criticize the contemporary northeast reality and the times,inheriting the realistic style of the modern northeast writers group represented by Xiao Hong and Xiao Jun;The introduction of contemporary multiple values makes shuangxuetao’s works appear a new variety.This paper intends to affirm the value from three aspects: the continuation and breakthrough of literary narrative tradition,the reflection and refraction of contemporary northeast life and the unique narrative style;On the other hand,the Northeast may become a "Besieged City" that writers can’t get out of.We think and evaluate the shortcomings of shuangxuetao’s novels,such as theme cage,negative sentimental mood,routine ending,narrative rhythm and so on.
