1在小说《人境》的后记中,刘继明坦言自己如同跑到终点的马拉松队员,因为他完成了一生中最重要的作品。而他之所以说这部作品重要,主要缘由有二:首先,小说历时十余年创作而成,是他对于当代中国诸多社会问题及时代变迁长期观察与思考的结晶,可谓一份个人对于时代的“思想总结”;其次,《人境》真正践行了他的文学理念,是其寻找文学位置、激活文学功能的一次重要尝试,堪称一场文学介入现实的“写作实验”。概而言之,这是一部在其创作生涯中具有界碑意义的作品。

And the reason why this work is important is that there are two main reasons for it: firstly, the novel was created over ten years and is the result of his long-term observation and reflection on many social issues in contemporary China and changes in the times. It is a personal account of the times Secondly, “Habitat” truly fulfilled his literary idea, which is an important attempt to find the literary position and activate the literary function. It is called a “writing experiment ”. In a nutshell, this is a landmark work in his creative career.
