A story about love that saves, breaks, and remembers. Michael: What We Do for Love is a haunting literary novella about a man who gives everything for love-and slowly loses himself in the process. Set between silence, faith, and confession, Francis Nsehe Abatai unravels the quiet ache of devotion: how love can heal yet hollow, redeem yet ruin. Each chapter moves like a prayer through heartbreak, mercy, and memory-capturing the raw tenderness of staying when it hurts to stay. Written in the author's signature cinematic style, this story explores what it means to love without conditions, to forgive without closure, and to survive the slow undoing of the heart. From the author of Han & Jul and The Devil Does Cry, Michael: What We Do for Love continues Abatai's exploration of intimacy, spirituality, and the fragile beauty of human connection. Poetic, immersive, and deeply emotional, this novella asks the question we all face: How much of yourself can you give before you disappear?
