阅读作家笔下编织的悲欢离合,那些故事发生的地点时常让我着迷:王安忆的上海,洪峰的长春,贾平凹的西安……不同的城市就像不同的人,风格鲜明,容貌各异。城市呈现给世人的究竟是怎样的面貌? “西城记”——京沪粤港四个城市的学生就相同的主题阐发观点,抒发感受的栏目——“登场”之初,“自己的城市”成了我们首选的主题。在同龄人的文字中这些城市的面貌是否更清晰了呢? 我不知道。还是让阅读来告诉你答案吧。——编者 Reading the joys and sorrows woven by the writer’s pen, the place where those stories happened often fascinates me: Wang Anyi’s Shanghai, Hong Feng’s Changchun, Jia Pingwa’s Xi’an... Different cities are like different people, with distinct styles and different looks. What kind of appearance does the city present to the world? “The Story of the West City”—the students of the four cities of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, and Hong Kong elucidate the same theme and express their feelings—the beginning of “debut” and “their own city”. Has become our preferred theme. Is the appearance of these cities more clear in the words of my peers? I don’t know. Or let the reading tell you the answer. --editor
