王东东的《世纪》是一部风格鲜明的诗作。舒缓的节奏、从容自在的口语,却能建构出诗质浓密的作品;平实的文字、低调的修辞手法,却能带给读者耳目一新的感受。可以说是一种高难度的书写成就,而主要关键就在于作者对灵视或洞见( insight)的经营与表现。灵视是诗创作中特殊的思维方式,是借由诗人破格的吊诡语法所进行的观察、思索与表达。它往往可以精确有效地呈现出作者的观点与态度,也可以让读者在日常生活的惯性环境里受到美感的冲击与启发。作者的心思细密、观察敏锐,对于意识领域的边陲地带也有熟练的掌握能力,可以胜任这原创性相当高的书写策略。此外,他也勤快地阅读生活与历史典籍,使得作品中的情感和思想显得更有凭据与说服力。 ——周梦蝶诗奖授奖词
