Chinese author Lao Ma has a simple approach to his short stories: In the face of life, everything is funny.
对于中国作家劳马来说,写短篇小故事有一个很简单的窍门:在生活面前,一切事情都很有趣。
Mr. Lao, the pen name of Renmin University of China professor Ma Junjie, says there are plenty of laughable things in daily life that fuel his satirical stories, which often span only a page or two.
“劳马”是中国人民大学(Renmin University of China)教授马俊杰的笔名。他说,日常生活中有许许多多令人捧腹大笑的事情,为他的讽刺小故事(通常只有一两页)提供了丰富的创作素材。
His work is part of a rising literary genre called flash fiction, in which stories are told in 300 to 1,000 words. In an era of Sina Weibo and WeChat, flash fiction is becoming fertile ground for China, with its brevity and humor.
他的作品隶属一个崛起中的文学流派――微小说,微小说的篇幅在300至1,000字之间。在新浪微博(Sina Weibo)和微信(WeChat)称雄的时代,微小说以其简洁和幽默而成为一块沃土。
'A lot of people are drawn to it because the era we're in is an age of short stories rather than the novels of Tolstoy,' said Chinese contemporary author Yan Lianke, who joined Mr. Lao in discussing flash fiction at the Bookworm Literary Festival in Beijing on Saturday.
在上周六的北京书虫文学节上,中国当代作家阎连科就“微小说”与劳马进行了讨论。他说,我们正处于一个短篇小说的时代,而不是托尔斯泰(Tolstoy)小说时代,这也是微小说吸引读者的原因所在。
