About This Book

A series of realist sketches portrays people drawn to a large construction site and the small dramas that follow. One account follows a withdrawn young man nicknamed Nikki who keeps to himself, writes in secret and rarely speaks; when a playfully rough encounter leaves a coworker badly injured, Nikki assumes guilt and offers to accept punishment. The narrator cared for the wounded man, proved the danger less severe than feared, and the episodes probe loneliness, communal judgment and the burdens of conscience among transient workers.
