The Path of Rainwater is a novel of one man's travels across the country. He goes from back roads in Kentucky to small towns in Virginia and Tennessee to highways in Georgia and South Carolina. The people and places along the way compel him to look at the changes in his world and to evaluate both his views and, more important, his decisions. Ultimately, The Path of Rainwater is as much about the lives of everyday people Rainwater meets as it is about his choices.

The Speed of Dark reveals how the author, his mother the daughter of the French Rothschild banking dynasty and his father a world-renowned cellist, broke the chain of his lineage of art, music and banking to establish an important career in science. Born in the rural Adirondacks as an American citizen after his European parents and sister narrowly escaped Nazi Germany, he spoke French before English, was raised with financial security, was exposed to Rothschild palaces visiting his French grandparents, felt as a foreigner with his Russian family in Moscow, and often felt French in his native America. As a child, he felt simultaneously as his father's son, yet a guest in the audience when listening to the pinnacle of music played in his home by the greatest artists. As a developing scientist, he benefited by his charismatic father's influence who asked such an original, imaginative question, "What about the speed of dark?" Unlike other memoirs about rising from adversity to success, the author brings the reader into the privilege of having a unique family in which the extraordinary is ordinary, and the challenge of being asked, "Are you a failure like the sons of all great men?" The Speed of Dark will resonate with musicians, those interested in art, music and history, and those who seek to carve their own path in a world filled with high expectations and seemingly unlimited resources." (Sel Kardan, President, Colburn School of Performing Arts, LA) "The clear and elegant prose on the theme of collecting reveals a dedication and self-understanding that is rare." (Michael Hall, PhD, Curator of the Rothschild family collections, Exbury Estate, Hampshire, GB) "Piatigorsky's memoir will provide particular interest to students, scholars, and fellow collectors knowledgeable in the creative traditions of Native North American artists." (Bernadette Driscoll Engelstad, Independent Curator, Inuit Art) "Piatigorsky's memoir demonstrates that artistry can be found in science." (Joseph Horwitz, Ph.D., Distinguished Professor of Ophthalmology/Biophysics, Jules Stein Eye Institute, UCLA) "Piatigorsky's unique story will receive a wide audience: professional and lay scientists, art collectors, musicians, historians, writers and those who have struggled to find their identity." (Hamid Shams, BBP Films Producer and Cinematographer) "This memoir is not just worth reading, it is worth remembering!" (James Mathews, Author of Last Known Position)"This fascinating account of his journey becomes a meditation on art, wonder, and creativity, of bucking the status quo and following one's heart. " (Barbara Esstman, Author of The Other Anna, Night Ride Home, and A More Perfect Union)

Una novela sobre un hombre adicto al amor. Una historia basada en hechos reales que recorre los treinta y tres años de la vida de Michael Nicolau. El argumento nos adentra en el largo camino que Michael recorre en busca de su alma y nos ayuda a comprender las circunstancias que le llevaron a acabar siendo un hombre sin hogar viviendo en Bowery Mission, un refugio de Nueva York. Deseoso por defenderse y por justificar sus actos, Michael habla de su vida durante horas, día tras día a un trabajador social de Bowery Mission. Siendo al mismo tiempo cómico y trágico, héroe y villano, Michael echa un pulso a los conceptos de verdad, realidad, esperanza, fe, amor y honor. La verdad y la realidad son tan solo percepciones personales de las cosas que vemos, oímos o sentimos. [...] para que ocurran milagros, Dios necesita de nuestra cooperación. Como el Pastor Charles me dijo una vez, Dios puede lanzarnos una cuerda para salvarnos, pero somos nosotros los que tenemos que cogerla.

A novel about the man addicted to love. Based on the true story. The second book in the Michael Nicolau Series follows thirty-three years in the life of Michael Nicolau.

Eager to vindicate himself and his conduct, he speaks about his life, for hours, day after day, to a counselor in the Bowery Mission. At the same time comic and tragic, villain and hero, Michael is wrestling with the concepts of truth, reality, hope, faith, love, and honor. "Truth and reality are just our personal perceptions of the things and conditions we see, hear, and feel."

Cinderblock Houses is a fascinating, powerful collection of eight short stories. The most common theme throughout is that of young girls and women in the rural south trying to make sense of the world around them. It builds a picture of the multitude of social and emotional challenges women face and the many ways they learn how to rise above them. Each story is deeply tied to place, the South, and the collection spans topics of mental illness, ambition, death, and hope.

THEY is a groundbreaking work that will prove to be lifesaving for those in the LGBT community and enlightening and liberating to others. In this novel, we met Tamar from the Hebrew Bible. Tamar lives as a hermit in the desert, is content with her life and is happily barren. She is attached to her pet camel. Her aversion to goat sacrifices becomes so strong that it prompts her to become a vegetarian. Tamar has a twin sister Tabitha who becomes pregnant after seducing a young muscular shepherd. Tamar plots with Tabitha to trick Judah (a patriarch from the Bible) into believing that the baby is his so that she can have status in society rather than being burnt at the stake. Tabitha gives birth to twins. Tamar becomes attached to the children (born intersex), who call her auntie, and follows their line of intersex twins.

A collection of poems about family, inner perceptions, relationships, and friends. As the author says in the poem: ""...Read books with words dark as rained-on grass, tree trunks, blacktop, clothes sucking up to skin. Each word slides like mascara. The water on my cheek, pressing down my hair, hanging like spiders from my eyelashes - these are all part of the book, the part that makes it worth reading. Let these be the last lines you write - not a suicide note, but as final as one. Beware the greed good poetry breeds, greed for more and more verse. Soon you won't get through the day without a shot."

A collection of short stories. "Dokey is a writer who can take common people and ordinary places and make them resonate with meanings that suggest themselves to the reader long after the book is closed." San Francisco Chronicle "He is able to tackle enormous themes (birth, love, marriage, old age) and successfully incorporate them into relatively brief, carefully tailored stories. The author should be commended also for his ability to move effortlessly among a range of narrative voices." Publishers Weekly "Readers will be taken aback, too, by Dokey's candor and eloquence" Chicago Tribune "The complexity of Dokey's fiction creeps up, unveiling striking layers of humanity to quietly reward the patient observer"--The Sacramento Bee "He speaks to us in a solitary, moving language that only writers as skilled as Dokey can record. We are transported to the highest levels of human experience." - - Milwaukee Journal
