這古老的兩者

What is Heavier than Time

死亡不會讓情感結束,而是以之為起點延續。但在死亡之後,對於死者,「我」將會是誰?對於生者,「我」又是誰?何杉在詩歌中多次的詢問「是誰」,追問時間與生死之間的情感關聯,也追尋萬物的本質是「什麼」?

何杉,本名王哲。一九九五年畢業於華東師範大學中文系,二〇一六年取得教育學碩士,二〇二五年獲頒南洋理工大學博士學位。二〇二一年,獲得新加坡金筆獎詩歌獎。
二〇二四年,《平庸之作》獲得新加坡文學獎「華文詩歌獎」,同年參展德國法蘭克福書展。

This poetry collection attempts to reshape the self amid the emotional storm following the death of a loved one. Using death as a point of departure, the book explores the emotional ties between time and life/death, and the nature of all things. At its core, the collection suggests that emotion does not end but continues, beginning from death. The book reflects the idea of living on with hell inside, tracing how grief transforms into a force that reshapes one’s inner world and ongoing existence.

He Shan graduated from East China Normal University and later earned degrees in education and a Ph.D. from Nanyang Technological University. He won major Singapore literary awards, including the Golden Point Award for Poetry.
