The story is based on the true experiences of Mr. Bai, a local fish farmer known as the “King of Carps.” Building upon the “three dreams” that Mr. Bai once had, the author weaves in vivid descriptions of Singapore’s fisheries development: from the farming of edible fish in the 1950s, to the cultivation and eventual export of ornamental fish in the 1960s; from the repeated relocations of local fish farms between the 1970s and 1990s, to the emergence and research of high-tech vertical aquaponics farms after the millennium, which even earned international recognition and brought prestige back home.
The text also provides detailed depictions of the native villages in the Sembawang area, complemented by colorful illustrations.

《第四个男人》
这是一场跨越文学与影像的创作实验。从小说到微电影再到小说改编本，它以女性的视角剖析婚姻、欲望与自我价值的边界。故事中的每一次凝视、每一段梦境，都是对人性深处孤独与挣扎的映照。作者以寓言般的笔触，借“屠宰场”与“肉食猪”的隐喻，提出了关于自由、尊严与爱的哲学追问。这是一部语言简洁却意味深长的作品，让读者在现实与象征之间，重新思考人类的处境与选择。

With its allegorical tone and metaphor of “the slaughterhouse” and “the meat pig,” the story raises profound questions about freedom, dignity, and the essence of being human. Simple yet deeply resonant, this novel invites readers to contemplate life’s choices between reality and symbolism.

《鼠患》
这是一部以悬疑包裹现实关怀的深刻寓言。故事发生在一座百年安老院——一个承载着老人晚年希望与脆弱的地方。随着搬迁计划启动，看似蒸蒸日上的新气象背后，却潜藏着医护人员的恐惧与不安：电线被咬断、物品被啃坏、住户甚至昏倒失去意识……罪魁祸首明明“人人心知”，却因“无鼠无尸”而无法被承认。小说以紧凑的节奏铺陈人心的焦虑，呈现制度与现实之间的巨大落差。读者在追寻真相的过程中，也将看见一个社会如何面对被忽视的弱者与被忽略的危机。《鼠患》不仅是关于老鼠的故事，更是关于责任、证据与沉默的寓言。
This is a suspenseful and thought-provoking allegory wrapped in a modern setting. Set in a century-old nursing home, the story unfolds amid a grand relocation plan filled with optimism—yet beneath the surface lies fear and unease. Chewed wires, damaged items, and even a resident found unconscious suggest a hidden danger. Everyone knows the culprit: rats. But without a single body or clear proof, their cries for help vanish like smoke. Through a gripping narrative, the novel exposes the tension between institutional progress and the overlooked fragility of those inside. Rat Trouble is not merely a tale about pests—it is a sharp reflection on accountability, vulnerability, and the silent crises we often choose not to see.
