The Narrator tells us how the radio influenced his childhood in the days before TV. In the New York City of the late 1930s to the New Year's Eve 1944, this coming-of-age tale mixes the narrator's experiences with contemporary anecdotes and urban legends of the radio stars.

Nostalgia meets the crackling magic of the pre-television era through a young boy's eyes in Depression-era New York. This collection of vivid urban legends and radio broadcasts captures a fleeting moment when a single frequency could unite an entire city.
