About Paul Pines' book, _My Brother's Madness_, Publishers Weekly says:
"In this gracefully written memoir, poet and novelist (and practicing psychotherapist) Pines narrates his and his younger brother's lives through the matrix of his brother's mental illness. ... the writing compels with rich characters, black humor and clear evocations of locales..."

From the book description:
"Circumstances lead one brother from juvenile crime on the streets of Brooklyn to war-torn Vietnam, to a fast-track life as a Hollywood publicist and to owning and operating The Tin Palace, one of New York's most legendary jazz clubs, while his brother falls into, and fights his way back from, a delusional psychosis."

"Pines is the author of five books of poetry...
His novel, _The Tin Angel_, was critically very well received."
