Sills, Steven David Justin
Corpus of a Siam Mosquito
"Corpus of a Siam Mosquito" by Steven David Justin Sills is a novel written in the early 21st century. The narrative unfolds in the vibrant yet complex socio-cultural landscape of Bangkok, primarily focusing on a character named Nawin (formerly Jatupon) as he navigates the blurred lines between desire, art, and relationships in a world filled with vice and vulnerability. The exploration of his relationships, particularly with a prostitute-model named Porn, encapsulates themes of longing and human connection amidst existential uncertainty. The opening of the novel introduces readers to a contentious dynamic as Nawin and his companion, Porn, journey through the streets of Bangkok in a taxi. The author vividly captures their initial awkwardness as they grapple with their mutual attraction while also reflecting on their respective lives and identities. Nawin's internal struggle is laid bare as he contemplates his fame, artistic endeavors, and the societal expectations tied to his profession and relationships. The dialogue between Nawin, Porn, and the taxi driver reveals their emotional turmoil and the socio-economic challenges defacing their identities, while Nawin's previous life as Jatupon hovers ominously over his present. The novel's journey then begins to peel back the layers of these characters, suggesting an intricate exploration of love, loss, and the human condition within the context of contemporary Thailand.
