Tokyo Twins - New fiction from Tommy Schmitz

What's it about?

... a surreal and delightful mystery-adventure about what is all too painful and true...

Tokyo Twins is an east-west tale about two Japanese girls whose names are Katie and Susan O'Brien.

Set over a one week period during late spring in Tokyo, we see, through the eyes of their parents recently taken hostage in Kashmir, what the roots of terrorism are.

Through the eyes of Katie and Susan O'Brien, clueless about such roots, we see what the end of terrorism might be.

What readers are saying.

a computer expert in Texas: "Best story I've ever read, and I read a lot. Reminds me of Richard Bach.

a woman in Montana: "... story telling on the level of Amy Tan."
a man in London England: "Inventive and engaging narrative stuff. Packed full of earnest biographical detail that is effectively balanced by layers of absurd circumstances which enables the tale to retain its character of mysterious significance. An exploration, perhaps, not only about the identity of the girls, but also about identity of culture. Great laconic narrative voice."

the author's brother: "Tommy can write better than this." :)
