A mental-health-focused short novel set in an alternative history of Japan features a call to action to readers who suffer from mental health issues and suicidal thoughts. This novel showcases the courage and determination of individuals like Kaiyo, who are willing to save those they care about because they believe life is worth living and worth healing.
Tears of the soul, wounds of the heart, and memories of the departed.
Kaiyo, from Kagoshima, Japan, has suffered from traumatic experience after traumatic experience, leaving him searching for healing, finding love, and caring for a troubled friend. When he meets Isadora from São Paulo, Brazil, a half-Japanese, half-Brazilian, Kaiyo finally lets his heart thaw from her love and affection. Yet, in his mind, he cares for Bobby, his Japanese-American friend from Santa Rosa, California, as Bobby worries Kaiyo. Too often, his behavior reflects past traumas of the people he has lost, so Kaiyo does everything he can to prevent Bobby from committing the trauma he has painfully relived for so many years.
Anglo-American self-published author with two books on Amazon KDP: Belong and Faith: A Golden Epic. Belong is a novella about an Indonesian-American couple who travel across Java for three weeks while working through the difficulties of a multicultural relationship and handling the expectations of family. Faith: A Golden Epic is an urban dark fantasy set in Pittsburgh, where a Korean-American named David ventures through a dimensional world of danger and mystery, uncovering what he is as a servant, someone with lionlike zeal that fights against the demonic subjects. I like to play video games, read history books, and write historical fiction blogs on Medium.
