南方

by Emily Oster

我有用文字复制一生的想法，先是写了《青少年》，简单地说，这是一个一刀不剪地长达50万字的长镜头，接着是《句群》，它像一些特写，我会写到死。然后是《南方》，如果说《青少年》是线性的，那么《南方》就是“网状”的。我不太关心在《南方》里写了什么，不关心是不是用了方言，不关心是不是介绍了南方的风土人情，不关心是不是“乡土文学”。这些“文学的关注”都不是我的关注，我只是用了这些“素材”把文字排列起来，排列文字是我最终的目的。我认为最好的叙述就是平铺直叙。我想把我一生写的全部组成一本书叫《一万页》，《南方》是其中的一部分。——孙智正《南方》采用精美布面书脊硬精装，附赠封面原图彩色画家绘制明信片，与内容相得益彰。全书分为四章，每章约20节，合计82节。
