以叶辛的《孽债》为代表,中国的知青文学创作发生了一个重大转向,知青文学从早期的“自恋式”情感诉求开始走向“理性回归”。这个文学创作转变,说明他们已经开始从早期的幻想式回忆中,学会了从“他者”的角度真诚地对自己进行重新审视,这意味着知青作家正在尝试用理性的眼光来重新认识自己,对他们通过文学追求自身的人生完美有着值得肯定的审美价值。 With Ye Xin’s “evil debt” as the representative, a great turn has taken place in China’s educated youth literary creation. From the early “narcissistic” emotional appeal, educated youth literature has begun to move toward “rational regression”. This shift in literary creation shows that they have started to re-examine themselves since the early fantasy memories from their “other’s” perspective, meaning that educated youth writers are trying to re-think rationally It is worthy of affirmation of the aesthetic value to themselves through their pursuit of perfection of their life through literature.
