Available only in paperback and only on AMAZON. All proceeds go to charity.
The Madison Picker is a witty and heartwarming semi-autobiographical literary novel based on the author’s own day-to-day experiences as an antiques dealer and collector over four decades. The book’s characters are Charles and Emma Dawes. Emma is a Peruvian beauty and certified interpreter. The two met on Match. Other than Charles having more hair than the author, most of the facts are real-world and the anecdotes are not exaggerated. The two protagonists live in Barboursville, Virginia. They travel far and wide in search for anything that they can buy low to sell high. In this first title in the Picker Series they travel to Culpeper, Charlottesville, Lexington, Woodstock, Edinburg, Harrisonburg, Brownsburg, and then they jet down to Key West with their two pals. There Emma goes shopping while Charles pursues bonefish. They drive back picking antiques along the way.
