摘要
利维在《游回家》里描写了抑郁症和情爱创伤所引起的心理危机,揭示了现代人对亲情、友情和爱情的价值取向。利维笔下的言辞幽默、情境幽默和冷幽默妙趣横生,意味深长,促人顿悟,消解了小说情节中大量被压抑的语境。此外,利维凭借着其独到的情境幽默叙事技巧,以误会、失望和焦虑为视觉情境,展现人心百态和社会认知,洞烛了现代伦理的幽微。她还采用冷幽默的叙事策略,显现了现代社会的身份危机、情感危机和人际关系危机,展现了冷幽默的独特艺术功效,鞭笞了人性的阴暗面,表达了作家对社会问题和家庭问题的新感悟。
In Swimming Home, Deborah Levy delineates the psychological crisis caused by depression and love-deficient trauma to demonstrate modem people's attitudes toward familial relation, friendship and love. The verbal humor, situational humor and deadpan humor in her work, full of wits and meanings and provoking our epiphany, deal with the repressed situations in the plot of the novel. In addition, by means of her specific ways of conveying situational humor, she presents the varied mindsets of human beings and their social cognition in situations of miscomprehension, disappointment and anxiety, and in this way sheds light on subtle problems in modem ethics. Basing her novel on chilly humor to describe the identity crisis, emotional crisis and interpersonal crisis in modem society, she highlights the artistic effects of chilly humor, makes invectives against human nature's seamy side, and demonstrates her new insights into social and familial problems.
