A literary novel about desire, self-deception, toxic love, and the price of remaining on the threshold for too long.
Zurich, at the edge of a new millennium. Lea is intelligent, successful, and trapped in a relationship that has long since stopped being love. Tiger is magnetic, volatile, and dangerous. What began as passion has become a pattern of addiction, shame, control, and violence. Lea knows she has to leave. But knowing is not the same as being free.
Oliver, her closest friend, is standing on his own threshold. Outwardly controlled, cultivated, and composed, he begins to understand that much of his life has been built around avoidance. Encounters with men who unsettle and attract him force him to confront a truth he has spent years refusing to name.
Around them move Dino, a physically powerful friend caught between loyalty and old ideas of masculinity; Tateo, a quiet counterpoint to possessive love; and Darwin, a stranger whose presence opens a door Oliver may finally be ready to walk through.
LIMINAL is a psychological, urban novel about people who sense that the lives they have built no longer hold. It explores queer awakening, toxic attachment, friendship, addiction, shame, and the dangerous art of lying to oneself beautifully enough to believe it.
Because sometimes the threshold is not a door, a suitcase, or a dramatic goodbye. Sometimes it is a park bench by the lake, an unanswered call, a body you desire before you know its truth, or a sentence spoken too late.
For readers of literary fiction, psychological relationship novels, LGBTQ fiction, and contemporary stories about identity, desire, and the fragile courage it takes to change one's life.
