多尔夫曼虽然流亡异国,但是他在自己的作品中一直把注意力集中在智利国内被压迫的同胞们的悲惨处境上。70年代,他的主要作品有反映这一时期智利生活的长篇小说《海岸看不清》(1973)、《智利克斯与公司:新指南》(1978)。多尔夫曼还曾积极研究大众文化,写有很多评论,出版过两部评论集:《怎么看唐老鸭》(1973)和《皇帝的旧衣》(1983)。在前一部文集中,作者认为,看似无益无害的沃尔特·迪斯尼的动画片实际上赋于唐老鸭以资产阶级的价值观,影响着大众。在后一部著作中,他则得出结论:现代西方社会里的各种形式的通俗文学都在向民众灌输错误的对资本主义的信任并且鼓励逆来顺受。80年代,多尔夫曼出版的作品——长篇小说《寡妇们》(1983)和《曼纽尔·桑德罗的最后的歌》(1987),前者描写37个妇女的丈夫失踪了,她们怀疑是独裁政府诱拐和杀害了她们的丈夫,于是与独裁政府展开了英勇的斗争。多尔夫曼把故事写得发生在40年代的希腊,但是人们一望而知他是在影射当时智利国内发生的事件。在后一部小说中,多尔夫曼采用了魔幻现实主义的手法,描写婴儿们拒绝出生,除非他们本国的极权主义政府消除了国内的社会压迫、经济压迫。后来,婴儿们对于他们的出生的政治影响进行了争论,最后还是生了下来,只有一个婴儿——曼纽尔·桑德罗的儿子——故事的叙述者,仍然保持着被怀孕的状态。他以此抨击了独裁政权。迄今为止,多尔夫曼最成功的作品就是他的剧本《死神和少女》(der Tod and das Madchen,1992),此剧在英国和美国上演时都引起了轰动,现在已有30多个国家上演了或准备上演这部作品。著名波兰导演波兰斯基已经把这部作品搬上银幕。
Dorfman, though in exile, has always focused his attention on the miserable conditions of his oppressed compatriots in Chile. In the 1970s, his main works were “Coastal Blindness” (1973), Chirac and Company: A New Guide (1978), which reflects the life of Chile during this period. Dorfman also actively studied popular culture, wrote many comments, published two comments: “how to see the Donald Duck” (1973) and the “old emperors” (1983). In the previous essay, the author argues that seemingly harmless Walt Disney cartoons actually empower Donald Duck to influence the general public with bourgeois values. In the latter work, he concludes that all forms of popular literature in modern Western society are inculcating the false belief in capitalism into the population and encouraging subversion. In the 1980s, Dorfman’s work, The Widow’s Novels (1983) and Manuel Sandro’s Last Song (1987), where the former husband of 37 women were missing, Suspected of being an abducted government who had abducted and killed her husband, the heroic struggle with the authoritarian government took place. Dorfman wrote the story in Greece in the 1940s, but people realized at a glance that it was an incident that took place in Chile at that time. In the latter novel, Dorfman employs the technique of magical realism to describe the refusal of babies to be born unless their own totalitarian government eliminated domestic social oppression and economic oppression. Babies later debated the political impact of their birth and finally survived, with only one baby, the son of Manuel Sandro, the narrator of the story, still pregnant. He attacked the dictatorship. To date, Dorfman’s most successful work has been his play “der Tod and das Madchen” (1992), which caused a sensation when staged in the United Kingdom and the United States. Now more than 30 countries Staged or prepared to staged this work. The famous Polish director Polanski has put this work onto the screen.
