Paranoia on The Town Book Store in Westfield, NJ this Saturday

If you're around New Jersey on Saturday this update is for you: John Braun, author of 'Paranoia' will have a book signing event at The Town Book Store in Westfield, NJ tomorrow (September 13), from 11am to 1pm.

John is collaborating with Eco-Libris and and for each book sold. Also, all the buyers of the book at the event will receive our sticker saying "One tree planted for this book". And 10% of Profit from sales of 'Paranoia' will be donated to the Twin Towers Orphan Fund (http://www.ttof.org/).

Just to remind you, here's the description of this unique novel:

Jim went to work on September 11, 2001, thinking that it was going to be another boring day. But then the towers came crashing down, and he, like many of us, lost his ability to live without fear and prejudice. Now, years later, Jim is still suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. He’s haunted by the death of his mother, who was buried in the rubble of 9/11, and the departure of his wife and son, who could no longer deal with his inability to move on.

Living on his aunt’s farm in Colorado, Jim tries to find peace, but he keeps remembering the evil deeds of the past. And it’s not just the terrorists who are culpable. After the attacks, Jim became so paranoid that he joined an anti-Muslim group, and he participated in unspeakable acts of violence. Jim sees a psychiatrist in his effort to fend off the demons from his past. He does his best to remember what once made life so beautiful: his wife, his son, and the ability to live without fear.

In Paranoia, one man struggles to cope in a new world defined by terrorism in hopes of recovering what made his life worth living in the first place.

It's definitely a unique story, as you can see from its description:

But then the towers came crashing down, and he, like many of us, lost his ability to live without fear and prejudice. Now, years later, Jim is still suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
