精彩書評

"Allegorical novel by Salman Rushdie, published in 1981. It is a historical chronicle of modern India centering on the inextricably linked fates of two children born within the first hour of independence from Great Britain. Exactly at midnight on Aug. 15, 1947, two boys are born in a Bombay hospital, where they are switched by a nurse. Saleem Sinai, who will be raised by a well-to-do Muslim couple, is actually the illegitimate son of a low-caste Hindu woman and a departing British colonist. Shiva, the son of the Muslim couple, is given to a poor Hindu street performer whose unfaithful wife has died. Saleem represents modern India. When he is 30, he writes his memoir, Midnight's Children. Shiva is destined to be Saleem's enemy as well as India's most honored war hero. This multilayered novel places Saleem in every significant event that occurred on the Indian subcontinent in the 30 years after independence. Midnight's Children was awarded the Booker Prize for fiction in 1981."

拉什迪齣生在印度的穆斯林傢庭，但卻在英國接受教育，在文化上，他始終處於一種“邊緣”的地位，這使他能以一種全新的視角來觀察世界。他以英語為寫作語言，小說素材大多來自印度次大陸，他在寫作中經常采魔幻現實主義藝術的技巧，把“神話傳統、寓言、後現代小說和通俗文化交織在一起”，他的作品可說是東西方文化交匯、碰撞的一幅幅異常生動的圖畫。

　　 作者毫不介意在主綫的故事中不斷介入期間，磊落大方地為讀者指明他那些既可以被視為字麵意義也可當作隱喻或寓言的情節大體上應該如何進行闡釋，甚至就連這一雙關手法本身，作者都毫不介意將隱喻直截瞭當地比作天鵝，不停地提醒自己和讀者它何時以及為何需要起飛或降落在現實的大地上。如此，讀者既可以享受小說魔術師眼花繚亂的技巧，又不必擔心會陷入技巧的迷宮而失去“意義”——對今天的人類來說尤其害怕失去的東西——的寶藏，因為迷宮的建造者慷慨地賜予瞭指南針。
