“세련되고, 영리하고, 아름다운 소설이다.” _심사평에서
제23회 문학동네소설상 수상작 출간!

은희경의 『새의 선물』, 전경린의 『아무 곳에도 없는 남자』, 천명관의 『고래』 등 한국문학에서 빼놓을 수 없는 작가들의 첫 장편소설을 탄생시킨 문학동네소설상의 스물세번째 수상작 『알제리의 유령들』이 출간되었다. 문학동네소설상은 올해부터 경장편소설 공모인 문학동네작가상과 통합 운영되면서 어느 때보다 열띤 관심과 호응 속에 심사가 이루어졌다. 수많은 경쟁작을 제치고 상을 거머쥔 올해의 주인공은 소설가 황여정이다. 그는 “간결하고 정제된 문장, 개연성 있는 이야기의 연쇄 혹은 세련되고 효율적인 구성”(심사위원 은희경)을 무기로 압축된 문장과 그 사이사이의 여백에서 ‘이야기되지 않은 것’이 전하는 울림을 최대치로 증폭시켜냈다는 평을 받으며 심사위원들의 아낌없는 찬사를 이끌어냈다.

나는 알지만 너는 모르는 것과 나는 모르지만 너는 아는 것은 서로에게 전달되지 않으면 의미를 갖지 못하는 걸까. 그렇다면 우리 둘 다 알지 못하는 것은 아예 없었던 일이 되는 걸까. 황여정은 서로 다른 인물들의 시선을 성기게 교직하여 빈칸으로 남아 있던 삶의 풍경들을 희미하게 그려나간다. 『알제리의 유령들』은 그렇게 채워진 풍경 위에서 비로소 드러나는 애틋한 관계들을 아슬아슬하게 연결해낸 가슴 저릿한 소설이다.
