“小小的院落,疏疏的闲草闲花,清早带些微霜,好像一任晓风拂摇移,感慨有些别意,仿佛知道,这窗中人快要离他们远去万里了。”如此温婉细腻的文字,分明是三十年代沈从文在北平四合院里据着红木小方桌写《边城》的风格。谁能想到它竟出自一位革命领袖的手笔,这个人就 “A small courtyard, sparsely busy with leisurely flowers, took some micro-creams early in the morning, as if Xiaofeng was shaken and moved, and she was not even aware of it. She seemed to know that the people in this window were going away from them.” Such gentle and delicate text clearly shows Shen Congwen’s style of “Border Town” written in a square table of mahogany in the courtyard of Peking Courtyard in the 1930s. Who can think of it as coming from the hand of a revolutionary leader?
