Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every person has a story. Michael Domino is passionate about the stories of people from all walks of life, and there's no place like New York City for encountering an endless variety of stories to chronicle. In its twenty mostly factual short stories (some names have been changed), Park Avenue to Park Bench captures the essence of life in one of the world's greatest cities. Even though he has lived there nearly all his life, Domino remains constantly amazed at what New York and its people have to offer-and his wonderment shines through in his stories. They offer a refreshing take on the urban experience, where a simple "How's it going?" can open the door to unknown surprises and a little compassion goes a long way toward forging unique friendships out of a sea of strangers. Whether it's a barstool, bus stop, park bench, or any number of places he might wander across while walking the streets of his beloved city, Domino's willingness to engage with people is always rewarded in some way or another. In the hands of this skilled storyteller, these encounters will touch your heart and soothe your soul.
