The Broken Condom ( Website www.thebrokencom.com ), set in Indonesia and the USA, is with an oriental flavor — an Indonesian girl, Yanti, as the protagonist, an American unknown Dad, and few Asian characters. At an elementary school, Yanti, aged 7, was flogged by her head teacher. Her fault? That Friday afternoon, Yanti didn’t return home from her grade school. She scooted off to the house of Jasmine whose dad came every day to the school to drop off and pick up his sweet daughter. Yanti concocted a story to Jasmine’s mom that she had gotten permission from her mother to stay with her friend for the weekend as no one was in their home, and Rose had been admitted to the hospital. The next two days she spent with their family were like a weekend in Disneyland to Yanti. Why was she beaten? What she did afterward? A gritty mission. A solo journey of a young girl without her Dad. Truly International plot. www.thebrokencondom.com.
