| Plot Summary of January's Paradigm |
|---|
" A groundbreaking novel by J. Conrad Guest about coming to terms with marital infidelity — from the male perspective. Can novelist Robert Porter with assistance from Joe January, the protagonist from his novels, right the wrongs of his own tormented present and, through letting go of the past, find hope for a better tomorrow?
J. Conrad Guest has taken the heartbreak of sexual betrayal and turned it into a romance-fantasy in which all of the wronged spouse's dreams come true. Time travel — both forward and back — figure prominently, giving the novel a bit of science fiction flavor and more than a little intrigue."
Zinta Aistars, Resident Scholar
