方方 小說 ≪軟埋≫에 나타난 ‘土地改革敍事’의 意味

Abstract

Ruan mai had a new perspective when compared with the existing land reform sanction novel. Fang Fang has fictionalized two kinds of life that a woman has suffered. The protagonist had to fill the time of his whole life with memories of history and repetition of oblivion. What has led a life of ordinary human to such a path? The novel made the readers question during the passage through the ‘18-story hell’ in the text. It is the story of people who are in the element of historical events to entirely dominate the individual memory. These stories, made among humans, have shown the violence with a conflict of uncertain humanity that could occur under extreme circumstances without filtration. Fang Fang talked about a historical event that occurred in China about 60 years ago with a word called Ruan mai. This novel, which was completed after a long period of elaboration, shows the traces of the writer struggling to find the truth buried between ‘individuals and groups’ or ‘individuals and individuals’ at the beginning of the new Chinese construction. It was a novel that made the readers reflect on the resentment and anger of individuals which should not be forgotten in the achievements recorded in the glory of the group. In short, what is most required when combining historical facts with novel forms is ‘veracity’. Ruan mai is a novel that matches this. It is impossible to reenact the readers without ensuring veracity. This work showed the writer’s willingness not to be shaken by the slope of ideology by borrowing the ‘diary’ symbolizing the civilian record and subconscious of the female character struggling with her emotional injury for entire life.
