The Fear Responses of a Union Iron Worker is a collection of gritty, eclectic, stories founded in the journey of a host of heroes and villains clothed in the everyday life of working people. Each story, more intricate than the last, awakens the social ills and removes the bandages revealing the excuses of the human condition. Author, Robert F. Nelson, Jr., highlights both the justice and injustices often hidden beneath the surface of segments of society's most basic needs, responses and interest.
