"Call me Piccolo"

So begins the tale of an Italian greyhound who as a young dog leaves his native Venice to find his father who has disappeared in the City of York they call new. Eager to make art, Piccolo is soon thrown off the scent of his father's trail when a great American sculptor offers him space in his Brooklyn studio. Duped by his own desire, Piccolo labors for neither fame nor fortune until his baptism by the fire of a hot chili pepper ignites his career. However, only after his encounter with the spirits that haunt the Grand Canal will he make the greatest discovery in art of all time!


"The writing is smart, sly and very effective, and I found myself laughing out loud at the sheer verve and nerve of the narrative and the voice. In a sea of standard mysteries and genre books, this one clearly stands out." Judge's Commentary Writer's Digest Competition 

"Apart from creating a touching and tender story, the author deserves compliments for the capacity to give us vivid impressions of works of art as seen through the eyes of Piccolo, as well beautiful Venice with its piazza and calle, sure to inspire future travelers." Elaine Bertolotti artist/Turin, Italy

"Skillfully the author weaves in artwork enticements and disappointments with such twists of humor and layers of insight that readers get a chance to feel what it might actually be like to crave success in that made race to be part of the NYC art scene." Randee Silv, Editor, Arteidolia
