Overview

CELEBRATE THE LIFE AND TIMES OF ""THE BEST FANTASY-FLOWER MAN IN AMERICA"" In these autobiographical short stories, designer Danny Vano Miller writes about his career and personal life in a manner as unique and imaginative as his handmade fantasy-flower creations. He describes the many challenges he has faced trying to balance his Romani (Gypsy) customs with the pursuit of success in the gadjo (non-Gypsy) world. Before he could read and write, Danny began learning the basics of traditional Old World craftsmanship. But his quick mind, his eye for detail, and stubborn artistic intuition set him on a higher path. Danny refined his faux floral, display, and set-design skill set over many years, eventually becoming an award-winning broadcast art director. Tales of a Gypsy Flowercaster is a heartfelt invitation to learn about Danny's life and work, to confront prejudice and misconceptions, and to peek into the vibrant but secretive and often misunderstood Romani culture. Content Guidance: These stories contain mature themes, strong language, and frank discussions of physical/sexual violence and of various individuals' gay and straight romantic and sexual relationships.
