诺曼·梅勒生前最后一部作品《林中城堡》是关于青少年时代的希特勒以及一些重大历史事件的作品，具有鲜明的历史属性。读者期待的是确定、甚至是唯一的历史叙述，但是，它却采用了小说叙事手法，主要包括虚幻的魔鬼叙述者、自觉的元小说叙事策略和不稳定的隐喻结构。梅勒想要再现的关于希特勒的现实世界被这些具有虚构特点的叙事手法“问题化”。小说呈现的历史被蒙上了虚构色彩，想要表现的“真”却变成了“假”，想要寻求的答案却变成了问题。叙事结果显然“与期待冲突”，甚至自相矛盾，呈现出明显的悖论特点。不过，这种悖论性的历史叙事却让读者认识到：没有唯一、纯正、稳定的希特勒形象，历史真实只存在于文本无限的建构过程之中。

Norman Mailer＇s last work The Castle in the Forest writes about Adolf Hitler in his young age and some important historical events. It is obviously historical. The reader expects a sure and authentic historical narrative. However, it adopts some fictional narrative strategies, including a demon narrator, the self-conscious metafictional narrative strategy, and the unstable metaphorical structure, with which Hitler＇s story is problematized. Paradoxically, the fact becomes fictional, and the narrative effect goes against the expectation of the reader, even the author. The answers to the questions concerning Hitler remain uncertain. However, this paradoxical historical narrative reveals to the reader that there is no single, authentic, and stable Hitler. The historical fact exists in the indefinite textual construction.
