2009-05-03 「小説は手で書くものだ」(吉村昭)
_ 親しくしているアルシーヴ社の編集者,佐藤真さんが『TASHINAMI』という雑誌をもってきてくれる。
初めてみた雑誌だったので,急いであちこちめくってみる。文藝春秋企画出版部/制作,文藝春秋/発売,とある。そして,編集スタッフの最後のところに佐藤真さんの名前があり,かれのところだけカッコ書きで(株式会社アルシーヴ社)と入っている。変だなぁと思っていたら,その少し上のところに「企画協力 JT」とあった。これで納得である。なるほど,日本たばこ総合研究所の発行している『談』という雑誌の編集長をしているのが佐藤真さんだから,その関係だな,と得心する。それにしても,編集者としての佐藤さんの能力の高さが推し量れるというものである。
しかも,この雑誌(第2号)のなかでは,三浦雅士に「特別インタビュー」し,その文章をまとめている。これがまたなかなか面白い。で,この話を手がかりにして,ずいぶん前にわたしが三浦雅士氏と対談したときのことを書こうと思ったのだが,とんでもないところに話は飛んでしまうことになってしまった。
同じ,この号のトップにあった記事「父・吉村昭を語る」(息子さんの司さんの談話)のなかのたった一つのフレーズがわたしの関心を引きつけてしまったからだ。それはつぎのようなフレーズである。
「司,小説は頭で書くのではない。手で書くのだ」といっていた。アイディアが浮かぶまで待つなんて,そんなの嘘だと。
自分の手首を原稿用紙の上に持っていくのだ,体を机にしばりつけるのだと。そうして書きはじめるのだといっていました。
ここを読んで絶句してしまった。いっとき,吉村作品が好きで,ずいぶんのめり込んで読んだ時代がある。とりわけ,情景描写のすさまじさは,まるで自分がその場に立っているかのような錯覚を起こしたものだ。藤沢周平の情景描写もすごかったが,吉村昭のそれも「鳥肌」ものだった。しかも,この人は多産だった。だから,文章は湯水のように湧いてきて,それをひたすら文章にするだけだったのではないか,と勝手に想像していた。それが,そうではない,というのだ。
「小説は頭で書くのではない。手で書くのだ」と,これだけをとりだしてきて読むと,単なるギャグになってしまいそうだ。いくら頑張ったって「頭では書けない」,と。しかし,ギャグではなくて,本気で吉村昭が言ったというのだから,これはただごとではない。「手で書くのだ」。「自分の手首を原稿用紙の上に持っていくのだ」,「体を机にしばりつけるのだ」となると,ことは尋常ではなくなってくる。すさまじいとしか言いようがない。やはり,身を削るようにして書いていたのだ。
それとも,頭で考えるよりもさきに,手が勝手に動き出す,というのであろうか。特注の,大きい原稿用紙に,細書きの万年筆で,細かな文字をびっしりと埋めていくように書いたという。400字詰めの原稿用紙に換算すれば4〜5枚分はあったのでは・・・という。書いた原稿の全体が見渡せることを好んだからだ,という。ひょっとしたら,自分の書いた文章を眺めていると,自然に手が動きはじめるのではないか。となると,これはまたまったく別の次元の話である。
わたしの知人の面打ち師は,「目が考えて,手が動く」という。つまり,ものの制作にともなう「ポイエーシス」のことだ。自分のつくったものにつくらされる,という逆転現象が起こる。このとき,ものを制作している人の意識はほとんど飛んでしまっている。目と手の共同作業だけが一人歩きして,どんどん仕事を進めて行ってしまう。気がついたときには,大方,できあがっているという。
だから,吉村昭の原稿も,これと同じような次元で書かれていたのではないか,とわたしは想像する。いやはや,名人と言われる人たちのやることは,やはり,どこか違っている。そのレベルに早く近づきたいものではある。いつの日になることやら・・・・。
この雑誌,広告が一つもない。カラー写真がふんだんに使われていて,上質紙でできている。しかも,なかなか読ませる。まことに贅沢なつくりである。それでいて,定価762円。破格の値段だ。やはり,「JT」の強力なバックアップがあるのだろうか。単なる邪推。いやいや,羨ましいような話。
