I. Joseph Kellerman (Paperback)

Within the narrow boundaries of a world peopled by the troubled souls who come to 4991 Hopewell Street and by one devoted employee, a tale of self-discovery and redemption unfolds. The shingle outside that Boston row house reads, "I. Joseph Kellerman, Psychiatrist," but inside exists a tormented man. Under the watchful eye peering through a tiny hole hidden by a bizarre painting, Dr. Kellerman listens to the problems of those who sit in the yellow armchair. The same yellow chair beckons the doctor, who struggles there with his own demons, created when he was a child in Nazi occupied Europe. As he comes to terms with his past and attempts to salvage what remains of his future, the psychiatrist and those who know him perform a dance of relationships, both imaginary and real.
