《可怜的Koko》通过对叙述语言的关注 ,颠覆了传统叙事的权威性 ,通过对意义的破解来突出意义的不确定性 ;同时 ,小说又试图突破语言的限制来表达某种确定的含义。“我”对语言能否“精确”表述过去的经历 ,能否表现经验的主体及自我 ,表示深刻的怀疑 ;但“我”又通过语言和叙事的文本对主体的经验进行反省与反思 ,这一反省与反思的过程构成了对自我不断认识、对自我不断建构的过程。小说体现了一种对后现代主义语言论的批判意识 “Poor Koko” subverts the authority of the traditional narrative by focusing on the narrative language and highlights the uncertainty of meaning through the interpretation of the meaning. At the same time, the novel attempts to break the language limit to express a certain meaning. “I” expresses profound doubts as to whether language can “accurately” explicate past experiences, whether or not it represents the subject and the ego of experience, but “I” introspects and reflects on the experience of the subject through the texts and narrative texts The process of reflection and reflection constitutes the process of constant self-awareness and constant self-construction. The novel reflects a kind of critical awareness of postmodernism
