Portrait of a Rainbow as a Young Man: (aka Doberman's Angel)

During a snow flurry the week before Christmas, a young girl gives a blanket to a homeless man living on the streets, a simple gift that ends up saving both of their lives. A shy young boy is struck by lightning after witnessing a rainbow on Christmas morning and survives but is scarred physically and transformed spiritually. Portrait of a Rainbow as a Young Man (aka Doberman's Angel) is a tale of two stories intertwined, chronicling lives of chaos and serendipity, adversity and creativity, misfortune and fortitude. The novel is a literary fable. The title is a symbolic metaphor for a portrait of a transformation - an inspiration - a mercurial vision of hope.
