边缘

by Ge Fei, 格非

《边缘》以一个老者弥留之际的灵魂袒露为线索，用追忆的形式平行展开了“我”、仲月楼、徐复观、宋癞子、杜鹃、小扣、胡蝶、花儿等人的故事。他们终其一生，都挣扎在人生与历史的边缘。边缘，正在成为现代人的基本生存境遇。格非用自己的叙事复活了几乎整个二十世纪的中国历史。时空飘忽，片段跳荡，全书弥漫着一种伤感的宿命和宗教般的宁静。

About the author

Ge Fei (Chinese: 格非; pinyin: Gé Fēi; Wade–Giles: Ke Fei, born 1964) is the pen name of novelist Liu Yong (刘勇), considered by many scholars and critics to be one of the most significant of the Chinese avant-garde writers that rose to prominence in the 1980s and 1990s.

Ge Fei was born in Dantu, Jiangsu, in 1964. He studied Chinese literature at East China Normal University and, after graduating in 1985, began to teach there and publish short stories and novellas. He read widely during his studies, but has since noted that he was particularly influenced by Borges, Faulkner and Robbe-Grillet. Some of his early, more experimental works were translated into English in the 1990s, such as "The Lost Boat", "Remembering Mr. Wu You" and "Green Yellow".

One of Ge Fei's most celebrated works is the "Jiangnan Trilogy", which explores the concept of utopia and contains many allusions to Cao Xueqin's Dream of the Red Chamber.

In 2016, The Invisibility Cloak (which had won both the Lu Xun Literary Prize and the Lao She Literary Award in 2014) was the first of his longer works to be translated into English.

很短的长篇小说。文字语言描述很精准，平静、冷淡、残酷的记录了一生。 ​​​
