Requiem for the Bone Man. R. A. Comunale M.D.

&quot;Requiem for the Bone Man&quot; is a moving, compelling first novel, told with the assurance and skill of a born storyteller. It is also a meditation on the art of healing, as seen in the adventures of its unforgettable central character, Dr. Robert Galen. From his youth as a streetsmart son of immigrants, to his career as a gifted physician, Galen is tough-minded yet compassionate. Above all, he is deeply human, willing to risk the pain of loss and failure that inevitably comes to those with an unshakeable commitment to a vocation and to friends and loved ones.<br><br>Author Robert Comunale, himself a doctor, has given us further proof, if any is needed, that fiction can often be the deepest form of truth.<br><br>&ndash;William Gavin, author of &quot;One Hell of a Candidate&quot;
