Galen's 30

For fifteen years, R.A. Comunale enthralled his throng of loyal readers with tales of his alter ego, Dr. Robert Galen, aka Berto, who grew from a young lad on the rough streets of urban New Jersey, to a brilliant young medical student in Richmond, Virginia, to the bear-sized man treating patients at his unique family practice in suburban Washington, D.C. Full of passion and pathos-and vivid imagination-Comunale's collection of novels and short stories explored a wide range of human emotions and experiences, the full spectrum of the human condition. Afflicted with the disease now commonly known as Covid, the good Doctor in his valedictory offering focused on both that difficult experience and further reflections on his half-century of medicine. Galen's 30 presents 30 additional compelling stories by a gifted and beloved writer.
