On the county narrative in Zhang Chu's "Yunluo"
论张楚《云落》中的县城叙事

摘要

在长篇小说《云落》中，张楚以“云落县”书写县城的空间、人文景观，揭示在改革开放历史进程中地方风物和饮食文化与时代变迁的融合，共同建构起令人倍感温馨的“地方感”。小说中，他以细腻的笔调塑造了云落县城的两类边缘群体——中年妇女和县城青年，这两类人物的联系、交织与冲突，不仅展现了处于社会转型中的县城人际交往的复杂，还勾勒了充满人性温度的生活图景。同时，张楚还着力于日常生活叙事，以日常生活的细节与戏剧冲突呈现人的生存本相，再现了中国现代化进程中云落县城的社会百态。

Abstract

In the novel "Yunluo", Zhang Chu wrote about the spatial and cultural landscape of the county with "Yunluo County", revealing the integration of local customs and food culture with the changes of the times in the historical process of reform and opening up, and jointly building a warm "local sense". In the novel, he used a delicate tone to shape two types of marginal groups in Yunluo County - middle-aged women and young people in the county. The connection, intertwining and conflict of these two types of characters not only show the complexity of interpersonal interaction in the county in the process of social transformation, but also outline the picture of life full of human warmth. At the same time, Zhang Chu also focused on the narrative of daily life, presenting the true survival of people with the details of daily life and the conflict of drama, and reproducing the social aspects of Yunluo County in the process of China's modernization.
