制造爸爸◎栾风挽（节选）

　　我爸爸死了，他们说会还给我一个爸爸。

　　可他已经死了。

　　数字克隆，可以理解是克隆技术的孪生兄弟，升级版的。通过中微子级别的“打印”技术，像3D打印一样重塑人体的血管、肌肉跟骨骼。再加上一颗机械心脏，现有的成果已经足够一副躯体产生循环代谢。当然，错综复杂的神经线是不可能完全建立的，毕竟人类不能真的把自己当成女娲。

　　重点是他们可以模拟人脑的运作，重启存储记忆的海绵体，让克隆体拥有原身的记忆。

　　生物机构在父亲的葬礼上找到我们，他们要“复活”一个英雄。在这之前，克隆人是富豪的专利。他们享受更优质的生活、更完善的医疗，甚至连死亡都成了可选项。可常规意义上的克隆耗资不菲，需要有一整套完善的专业系统维持克隆体的储备和运转。克隆一具人体的耗费，等于挖空一座金矿。

　　直到数字克隆人技术出现，研发集团希望把这项技术推广开来，这是属于平民的克隆。因为价格低廉，义体在制造之初就限定了使用时限，一至六个月内。在这段时间里，人们可以好好地跟死去的亲人告别，弥补死亡时的遗憾。

　　让往生者不留遗憾地离开，让生者不留遗憾地生活，这是多诱人的话术。所以，研究院要选好代言人，明星和富豪显然不太合适——就好像让一个没有消化系统的外星人代言椒盐豌豆，而且克隆体涉及许多复杂的伦理问题。可谁能拒绝复活一个英雄呢？

　　一时间，所有人都在祝福我。包括央求我陪着去医院看她爸爸的那个朋友，我只问了一句：“这福气给你要不要？”

　　如果你问我高不高兴、惊不惊喜，我会让你滚去月球上给坑洞填土玩儿。死了就是死了，干吗要搞一个复制品回来。妈妈说十二岁的我还没有了解死亡的真正含义，才会这样轻易地面对离别。

　　“那你觉得他们送回来的是什么，是爸爸吗？”我问，用笔尖狠狠地在家庭作业上戳了个洞。

　　妈妈坐在椅子上，不安地转了转，很快，她恢复了镇定，用比以往更沉重的语气说：“我没有太多奢望，只需要他……那个人能接送你上下学。”

　　晚上，姑姑哄我睡觉的时候说，妈妈只是一时间适应不了而已。姥姥、姥爷在妈妈很小的时候就去世了，妈妈是寄养在亲戚家长大的。每当我和妈妈产生矛盾，又需要我让步的时候，爸爸就会说我俩是妈妈在世界上唯二的亲人。

　　可我就是想不明白，这个“唯二”竟然是可以替代的吗？

　　“你呢？”我问姑姑，“你认为他们送回来的是爸爸吗？”

　　姑姑沉默了很久：“我也不知道。”

　　……等它们自行发生关系。

编辑札记：晚引

　　《异典》试刊号以每位作者不约而同的默契，化为黑的引路人，穿梭于文字的夜调。

　　〈夜（中译）〉轻轻地揭开序幕，简约的诗里行间将深宵的“沉重／如砚台／研磨光线”弹起了“曲折的调子／弧形的，像背脊 / 拱起”。时间涌来一幕朦胧，如梦似幻的〈午夜将至床垫〉（以及作者的自行翻译作品“Seconds to Midnight Beddings”），枕着未明的目光，就那样地躺着、听着——仿佛陷入〈托梦〉的深邃、〈吸氮气的月亮〉的迷离。梦魇明明紧锁眉心，日子还是随着惯性套上〈睡衣〉，好似有些〈怕死〉，都不再感到害怕了。

　　夜调终究会变得轻盈，如蝙蝠掠过纸面，将夜推向黑的最深处。那里，蕴藏着一股深沉的旋律，漾着无尽的黑去迎向黎明，与粼粼波光的〈河〉在这昼夜之间缓缓地流淌……

Editors’ Notes: Finders of Night

This prelude issue of Oddilogues, Nocturne, brings together writers in a tacit concordance—each writer embodies a pathfinder in the dark, accompanying readers as they traverse the nocturnal lilt of words.

　As “dạ, night” gently opens, its short poetic lines grapple with the night’s heaviness “like the inkstone that light/has grinded into” and listen to the night’s “bending tones/curved, like backs/arching”. Time surges and obscures. On the dreamlike “Seconds to Midnight Beddings” (self-translated by the author from Chinese), cushioning our darkened gaze, we lie down and listen—as if wandering into other dreams; dreams that run deep into grief, like “Dream Visitations”, and dreams that are of pure psychedelia, like “Moon on Nitrogen”. Even as the night terrors haunt us, we put on our “Nightshirt” reflexively, as if those who are “scared of death” are no longer afraid.

　As we ease into more soothing tunes, like a bat fluttering across the page, we plunge into the deepest depths of the night. There, we find a melody, profound with contemplations, rippling in an endless dark to usher the dawn in, like a shimmering “River”, flowing with ease between night and day…

试刊号简介

　　《异典》试刊号横跨中英双语，收录十四篇文字创作，其十二个全新文学身份将化身为黑暗的引路人，带领读者穿梭文字的夜调。这期所呈现的作品，交汇在梦境、死亡、心里黑暗和夜的静谧中，展开意想不到的对话。最终，《夜调》希望邀请读者停下脚步，细心聆听夜晚的旋律。

Growing up was never meant to be easy for Michelle Tan. Her older sister Meredith lies in a hospital ward, unconscious and barely breathing. Sorrow-stricken, the younger girl dives headfirst into her memories – the first time Meredith taught her how to swim, their first mid-autumn festival together and her father’s untimely departure. But that only accounts for Michelle’s worldly worries. She also thinks she’s being followed. By what – she can’t exactly put a finger on. Clumsily, she navigates the arduous process of growing up and coming to terms with who she truly is while a supernatural enigma looms.

Young Constable Michael Chakrabarti experiences strange happenings during his night shifts. Mysterious recurring phone calls from an exasperated girl, a ferocious, shadowy lion of mythological origin; there doesn’t seem to be an end to the peculiarity that haunts him. Demystifying the unknown has consequences.

Captain Ishaan heads the newly-inaugurated Department of Supernatural Oddities. Shouldering the burden of being at the forefront of a revolution in science that could potentially decipher the supernatural, Ishaan soon realises that he might be too close to the puzzle for his own good. Can he truly exorcise the demons of his past?

Reality is a luxury. The Truth is never linear.

A woman. A hospital room. A marriage coming undone.

In Singapore, an ambitious, emotionally depleted expatriate mother checks her barely ill daughter into an upscale hospital—not out of medical necessity, but as a quiet, desperate act of self-preservation. For two nights, in the stillness of white sheets and fluorescent light, she finally breathes.

Her marriage is stable but sexless. Her career, stalled. Motherhood has become a performance she can no longer sustain—especially when she feels little love as a wife to a man untouched by desire.

In this raw, daring autofictive debut, Thammika Songkaeo explores what happens when a woman on the brink dares to confront the demons in her mind.

Set in Singapore but emotionally borderless, Stamford Hospital is a piercing portrait of burnout, resentment, and the silent rebellions that so often go unnoticed. This is a novel for anyone who has ever felt imprisoned by loneliness inside the very family they built.

‘Dissecting motherhood, marriage, and the cost of selfhood with razor-sharp precision.’ — Elle Singapore

Ink Studies explores contemporary practices of calligraphy in China, situating them in both a precarious and dynamic position. While people are increasingly writing less due to digitization, calligraphy is experiencing a revival partly fueled by governmental directives that promote “creativity” as a powerful discourse contributing to economic development. This book unravels intertwined imaginations of contemporary calligraphy in five different visual cultural fields in China today: calligraphy education, water calligraphy in public parks, modern calligraphic art, digital calligraphy and calligraphic font design. The various visual representations of the calligraphic sign within these fields are approached as active agents, demanding various physical and moral behaviors from practitioners. While calligraphy and creativity are often pitted against each other, as the nature of calligraphy is sustained through a culture of copying, the book challenges the perception of calligraphy as a static art, arguing instead for its creative potential in both formal and grassroots contexts. 

"Vermeeren's volume is the long-awaited 'missing course' for understanding Chinese calligraphy beyond conventionalized narratives. Focusing on new forms of shufa practice in everyday lives of Chinese people, it offers rich and gratifying food for thought on creativity, modernity, and the value of art in cultural politics and broader human experiences."  -- Yu Li, Loyola Marymount University

Laura Vermeeren is Assistant Professor of Cultural Heritage and Cross-Media at the University of Amsterdam, with a background in Chinese studies and a focus on creativity, everyday practices, and visual culture.

The poetry of Wong Phui Nam (1935–2022) is foundational to Malaysian literature in English, and while his early work is often cited and quoted in this regard, this edited collection of his poetry and critical essays makes it clear that his lifelong trajectory as a poet and critic is of deep interest. In the Mirror by Wong Phui Nam is a critical exploration of Malaysia’s fractured post-colonial identity and literary landscapes.

The editors worked with Wong to prepare his latest works In the Mirror (2000–22) for publication. This volume combines these with his earlier achievements, starting with How the Hills are Distant (1960–64). An introduction by the editors links Wong’s work with contemporary poetry in the region. An afterword by Wong’s contemporary Edwin Thumboo completes a volume that will be treasured for its historical context-making, but more importantly for the literary rewards of Wong’s poetry, written in unblinking confrontation with the contradictions and difficulties of writing in English in the region.

“Wong Phui Nam is one of the giants of Malaysian writing in English, a pioneering poet whose early work captured the cultural desolation of the immediate post-independence years…. His poetry collections, especially those containing multi-part poems, deserve to be read and studied in their entirety.”
- Ann Ang, National Institute of Education, Nanyang Technological University

Wong Phui Nam (1935-2022) was a Malaysian poet. 

Brandon K. Liew is a writer and editor, and currently a researcher at the University of Melbourne.

Daryl Lim Wei Jie is a poet, editor, translator and literary critic. His poetry collection Anything but Human (2021) was shortlisted for the Singapore Literature Prize.

In 2017, I started my research on the fate of granduncle Silvestr Nemec, a young Czech employed by the Bata Show Company in Singapore, who volunteered to fight the Japanese when they invaded the island during World War II. He went missing in 1942 and was involved in two historic events of the falls of Singapore: the battle of Pasir Panjang Ridge where the Malay Regiment made their last stands on Bukit Chandu and the Alexandra Hospital massacre.

Over time, my quest produced whole collection of stories that spanned a century and across continents, covering not just Silvestr’s life but also the Bata company in the Far East, other Czechoslovaks who lived in Singapore before and during World War II, as well as my own journey of discovery.

Not in my wildest dreams did I expect that my research would take my so far. On many occasions - such as when I was studying how Tomas Bata organised his business, or what other Batamen captured in their diaries, letters and articles about their works and life in Singapore in 1930s - I could vividly picture Silvestr in those contexts and situations.

My book about my granduncle Silvestr was first published in Czech in October 2020.

After many years abroad, Roz and Harun return to Malaysian Borneo for the funeral of their father Yusuf – and to reckon with their inheritance. A renowned palm-oil baron during Malaysia’s economic rise, Yusuf built the family’s immense wealth by destroying huge tracts of rainforest. What his children know is that he was also responsible for the violent disappearance of a man who stood in his way.

Harun has become a successful tech entrepreneur in Los Angeles, Roz is an artist struggling to stay afloat in Sydney. Now they want to return something their father stole from the forests of their homeland. In their quest for redemption they grapple with the legacy of power and corruption, dreamers and exiles, thugs and zealots. Most dangerous of all, they are haunted – by the ghosts of colonialism, the ghosts of family, the ghosts of language, and the ghosts of the forest itself.

A trailblazing journey across the globe, Fierceland weaves the past and the present into an emotionally powerful family saga that plays out at a mythical scale.
