Call me Piccolo. So begins the tale of a young artist who just happens to be an Italian greyhound. Setting off on his first artworld adventure, Piccolo leaves his native Venice to solve the mystery of his father's disappearance in the City of York they call New. Eager to make art, he is soon thrown off his father's trail when a great American sculptor offers him a 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. Only after his return to Venice, will Piccolo meet the spirits that haunt the Grand Canal and make the greatest discovery in art of all time.
With Piccolo, readers experience the arts, culture, and exquisite cuisine of Venice--as well as the underbelly of the NYC art scene. With vivid descriptions of both cities, humor, and a plot that moves at a greyhound's speed, Tiepolo's Greyhound, takes readers on an unforgettable adventure.
