时代心灵的感应和共鸣——《2006年中国小说排行榜》序言

文学思潮和文学流派具有相对的稳定性。2006年度的中国小说仍然在上世纪90年代以后的文学总格局下前行，有的还出现了伦理和叙事方法的回归倾向。关注并思考现实社会矛盾及其根源，仍在2006年中国小说中占有突出位置。莫言的《生死疲劳》和铁凝的《笨花》因其鲜明的个人思想烙印和长篇艺术成就，成为该年度绕不开的作品，从中可以看出作家重构民族精神心灵时的努力，在正史以外透视祖父、父亲一代的精神生存本相。

Resonance and Response of Time Spirit——The Impression of the Creation of Chinese Novel in 2006

Literature current of thought and literature schools have their relative stability. Chinese novel in 2006 still developed in the general literature pattern formed in 1990s, some of which had a tendency to regress toward ethical and narrative method. The novels, which paid attention to the con- flicts in real-life and thought of them, are still taking the prominent position in Chinese novel in 2006. Fatigue of Life and Death written by Moyan and Ben Hua Village written by Tie Ning, because of their bright personal thought and artistic achievement in longer novel, are two novels we can not ignore. From these two novels, we could see the effort that the writers reconstruct the national spirit and seek the essence of spirit in the life of their father and grandfather.
