当代爱尔兰小说家罗迪·多伊尔的作品体现了对变幻现实的深切关注。但他不逼真摹写现实,而是把后现代手法注入创作中。同时他避免陷入文字游戏,而是兼顾形式的创新和叙事的清晰,使作品具有较高的可读性。多伊尔的作品似乎表明,新颖的手法和对现实的关怀可以并行不悖。用新手法表现新现实,体现了爱尔兰乃至西方小说发展的新方向。 Contemporary Irish novelist Roddy Doyle’s work reflects the deep concern about the reality of change. However, instead of vividly depicting reality, he injected the postmodern approach into his creation. At the same time he avoids falling into the word game, but also takes into account the form of innovation and narrative clarity, making the work more readable. Doyle’s work seems to show that novel approaches and caring about reality can go hand in hand. The performance of new realities with new approaches reflects the new direction of the development of Irish and even Western novels.
