520    Graz, Austria, 1938. Joseph Skizzen's father, pretending 
       to be Jewish, leaves his country for England with his wife
       and two children to avoid any connection with the Nazis. 
       In London with his family for the duration of the war, he 
       disappears under mysterious circumstances. The family is 
       relocated to a small town in Ohio, where Joseph Skizzen 
       grows up, becomes a decent amateur piano player, and 
       creates as well a fantasy self-- a professor with a 
       fantasy goal: to establish the Inhumanity Museum.
