Boneca [Doll]

Introduction: Note From Author

This is not a love story between two men.

This is a story about how they find the value of love.

About how lovely and how hideous it can be.

Tragedies change the way Luuk and Jona lead their lives. Luuk grows up with unconditional love, whereas Jona has to pay for it his whole life. On a perfectly ordinary afternoon, an embarrassing accident happens, and everything that they once held true is turned upside down. Luuk calls it fate, Jona calls it a miracle. But however they see it, the nudge in their ordinary lives subjects them to a linguistics expedition deep in the Amazon jungle for three months. There, they learn more than just a new language. They learn that life can turn on a dime, and no power but God can change a misanthrope into a sentimentalist, or a doll into a human being.

Along their journey, Luuk sees that love is not as pleasing as he thought, and Jona sees that love is not as hideous as he knew it.

FROM THE AUTHOR:

Hi! Karin here. Thanks for choosing to read this story!

This book includes dialogues from several different languages, mainly Portuguese, Spanish, French, and Japanese.

Say Hi if you speak any one of the languages! ❤

This is a story I've always wanted to read, so I wrote it myself. If this book is true, it will find an audience that is meant to read it.

I want to thank everyone who chose to read this book.

PRAISE FOR THIS BOOK:
This story is ridiculously original. I get why you said it's different to everything else, because it is. As part of one of the minor and often overlooked LGBTQ+ groups myself, I'm grateful that someone finally recognizes that there's a plus. The use of poetry is very new, and the way you write it in your style is beautiful. I thoroughly enjoyed this. After just over a chapter, I've already liked your characters which is a feat not a lot of authors can achieve.
