Prologue
Dear Taylor,
I am your devoted admirer from Finland, right here on the borderlands of Russia. I'm not sure
if the location really matters, but we are a small nation of just over five million people under
Russia's shadow, and we have experienced Russia's cruelty several times throughout history.
I have written three books, and they tell not only of cruelty but also of love and everything
related to human life.
I've dedicated this trilogy—'The Trilogy of Humanity'—to your song 'Blank Space' (songwriters: Taylor Swift / Max Martin / Johan Shellback).
Lilo Thurman is my pen name, and though I have yet to publish any of my books, I was wondering if you would be interested in reading this series? I've contemplated turning it into a movie and envision you in the lead role, portraying identical twins.
Taylor, could you ask your followers if they would like to see you in the movie as identical
twins, playing the roles of Liina and Katariina?
...
This is a humble request, as when I heard your song while driving, it resonated with me more
than any song ever has. I immediately realized that the song was meaningful and somehow
very personal to me, even though I didn't quite understand the English words. I don't know
how often your fans experience this, but regardless, it was and still is the case for me.
In fiction, the author may borrow traits from people they've encountered. I only met that
'forever or it's gonna go down in flames' guy once. So, everything primarily happens in my
imagination. This man just saw me as entertainment.
He recommended 'The Game' by Neil Strauss to me a long time ago. You may be familiar with this book in which men learn various strategies and tactics to attract and seduce women. But, of course, the game works both ways. That's what all of this is. A game.
Me: ”Imagine an object of love. What kind of man is he?”
Chat GPT: ”Imagine this object of love as a masterpiece of art, capturing your
attention at first sight. He exudes a captivating and enchanting presence that
mesmerizes you from the first encounter. The depth and clarity of his eyes are like two
deep lakes in which you can immerse yourself and momentarily lose yourself. His
smile is like a ray of sunshine that brightens your day and warms your heart. He
possesses a bold and determined nature yet radiates warmth and empathy, making
you feel completely at ease in his presence. He possesses an intelligence that
captivates you and piques your curiosity. His words are like fountains of wisdom,
opening up new perspectives and inspiring more profound thought. His character is strong
and sincere, with a profound respect for others. His presence makes you feel safe and
valued. He is also fun and adventurous, making every moment with him feel like an
adventure. On top of all this, he has a heart full of love and compassion. He is unafraid to show his emotions and expresses his love openly and sincerely. Being with
him, you feel loved and appreciated, and his love gives you the strength and courage
to grow and flourish. Life with him feels like a perfect adventure, and every moment
with him is like a dream come true. He is your object of love, filling your life with joy,
happiness, and meaning.”
Such a man couldn't possibly die! A writer can't do that to their characters, but they do. They torture their characters to evoke a reaction. A response. To see how the characters will react in different situations.
It would be amazing to have you play identical twins. You would be part of portraying an incredible love story while the whole world watches and adores you.
In the movie, you would also have a 6-year-old son whose father is no longer in the picture. The boy is irresistibly cute, and he has what seems like two mothers, identical twins Liina and Katariina.
You'd get to love that boy on screen more than anything, both as Liina and Katariina, as a mother and an aunt.
By the way, Lilo Thurman isn't my given name, but my great-grandfather was a Thurman. Let
me know if you'd like to hear more.
I fully understand that you deserve fair compensation if you're excited about this project. In
fact, I'd like to offer you a stake in the company I plan to establish.
I also have other dreams I'd like to fulfill. I've already chosen the CEO.
So it's gonna be forever, or...
P.S. Money probably won't motivate you anymore. Love does, doesn't it?
The parts of this trilogy:
Part 1: Under the Orange Tree. This is a different kind of detective story. In the first
part of the trilogy, we meet social media star Katariina and her identical twin sister,
Liina, who is a psychiatrist. The theme of this book is racism. It explores why we must
not let fear take control.
Part 2: Run Wild, Child. The theme of this book is religion and how it often treats people
harshly. In the name of religion, one person mistreats another.
Part 3: If You Had Looked at Me. The final book's theme is love. What can love drive
a person to do? The consequences can be catastrophic, yet people cannot help but
love. This part is a celebration of love and its creative power. It touches upon birth, death, and all of life in between"
