Come and spend a little time with Dr. Robert Galen, aka Berto, as he traverses the memories of the tenement neighborhood of his youth. Meet the Mad Russian&ndash;why does he always carry a meat cleaver whenever he goes to get a shave from Thomas the barber? Then there&#39;s Giuseppe&ndash;Joe the Junkman&ndash;who roams through a neighborhood too poor to throw anything away. There are the Old Guys, veterans of the Great War, one a radio repairman who returned home with shell shock, the other a shoemaker with nothing below the waist. There&#39;s Mr. Buck, the clockmaker, who shares a secret with his young apprentice.

Be sure to meet Sal, Tomas, and Angie, Berto&#39;s pals who help him confront life&#39;s greatest mystery: the opposite sex. And above all there is his mentor, Dr. Agnelli, who along with a dead lady sets Berto along his life&#39;s path.<br><br>Come and meet them&ndash;and all of the unforgettable denizens of Berto&#39;s World.
