520    "Told through a series of quirky, irreverent short stories
       and letters home during the early 1980s, The Deaf Heart 
       chronicles a year in the life of Dempsey "Max" McCall, a 
       Deaf biomedical photography resident at a teaching 
       hospital on the island of Galveston, Texas. Max strives to
       become certified as a Registered Biological Photographer 
       while straddling the deaf and hearing worlds. He befriends
       Reynaldo, an impoverished Deaf Mexican, and they go on a 
       number of unusual escapades around the island. At the 
       hospital, Max has to contend with hearing doctors, nurses,
       scientists, and teachers. While struggling through the 
       rigors of his residency and running into bad luck in 
       meeting women, Max discovers an ally in his hearing 
       housemate Zag, a fellow resident who is also vying for 
       certification. Toward the end of his residency, Max meets 
       Maddy, a Deaf woman who helps bring balance to his life. 
       Author Willy Conley's stories, some humorous, some 
       poignant, reveal Max's struggles and triumphs as he 
       attempts to succeed in the hearing world while at the same
       time navigating the multicultural and linguistic diversity
       within the Deaf world"--|cProvided by publisher.
