Vector, New Fiction from J.J.Brown
Scientist author J.J.Brown here, to tell you about my new fiction book, Vector a Modern Love Story. The latest of my new fiction books is about love, opera, and a tragedy unfolding in an HIV clinic in New York City and South Africa. Not your usual romance. Readers say the new book made them see death differently, as a character and a layer over the story. Feel the love, the pain, and the hope.
Love in Books by Scientist Author J.J.Brown
Characters in my books have very different views of love. Michael, the main character in "Vector a Modern Love Story" is an older philanthropist with HIV/AIDS who loves himself more than he loves others. Eva plays the role of Mimi, the poor seamstress, in the opera La Boheme. But she sees herself as the role of Musetta as she pursues Michael obsessively.
