In Sun Pin’s new “seaside” themed novel “Seaside Magician”, all the stories take place in Papaya Town, the southernmost town in the mainland. There are all kinds of tropical fruits here, such as papaya, longan, and jackfruit; The land, the dense jungle and the mysterious lighthouse; there are fishermen who can only speak Leizhou dialect, and there are also immigrants from Southeast Asia; there are various types of ships, and the ups and downs of the tide and the ocean that connects the whole world; There are sailors who can’t walk steadily, there are captains who sail around the world, and there are foreigners who come to make money with dreams of getting rich; there are legends that circulate on the sea and never die, and there are fates and secrets sealed in the bottom of the sea.
In the creation of “The Magician by the Sea”, Sun Pin used her solid field work to build a world with a very Nanyang style for readers, which is a rare feature of marine literature in contemporary novels.
