Beyond Love

From its first appearance in the late 1970s to the remarkable treatment methods that are now keeping millions alive, AIDS has been a headlining topic for decades. Master storyteller Dominique Lapierre— renowned for his best sellers Is Paris Burning? and The City of Joy— has created his most extraordinary epic of human endeavor. In this dramatic, inspiring, and tender work, the author recounts the worldwide efforts to identify, control, and eventually eliminate the AIDS virus. Told through the eyes of doctors, scientists, nurses, and victims, these heroes and dreamers work desperately to conquer an insidious adversary and stop a dreadful epidemic.
