摘　　要：两位美国小说家,汤姆.沃尔夫和乔纳森.弗兰岑,近期都发表了"文学宣言",呼吁久违于美国文坛的社会小说,而后又"现身说法",各自推出了长篇小说"范本"。本文结合两位作家的文学主张,将两部小说置入历史和当代文学语境中进行解读,以期更全面深刻地认识当代美国文学中出现的不同声音。Two American writers, Tom Wolfe and Jonathan Franzen, each published a voluminous novel recently in response to their respective literary “manifestos” calling for “social novels”. This paper, by associating the authors＇ literary ideas and placing the two novels in the historical and contemporary literary context, attempts to offer a fuller understanding of the voice of revolt in contemporary American literature.
