《异典》小志试刊号：夜调 Nocturne 收录未被归类的语言与经验 ——语言未定，诗先发生。 ……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。 About Issue 0 Featuring literary works across Chinese and English, the prelude issue of Oddilogues brings together 14 works composed by 12 new personas, each embodying a pathfinder in the dark and accompanying readers as they traverse the nocturnal lilt of words.
