In "The Man Who Wanted to Buy a Heart," Bernstein mingles characters working in New York's apparel industry with those who exhibit the bizarre nature of human yearnings. We find out how death by pastrami may help the funeral business; we meet Henderson, who finds a cheap substitution for fashion, George McNabe, who wishes to be buried in his front lawn, and Ricardo, who must have a burgundy tie without embroidery, among others.
