Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. In Butcher, Jean-Jacques "Jack" Louis has spent almost twenty years at Loman's turning animal flesh into order. He knows every cut, every worker, every economy behind the meat counter's abundance. He also keeps a private chronicle of the company's crimes, the recalls evaded, the tainted cargo sold, locked in a basement safe beside a stolen Attic helmet meant for his son. When management finds its pretext, Jack answers with a fist and a chair through the plate glass, then leaves Grimsby with the record, a dying dog, and the obligations of a life he refused to moderate.In Boxer, the same man returns through nine spare episodes of work, discipline and inheritance. He teaches his son to follow the seam of a carcass. He lies in a vintner's bed while she talks of an early harvest. He trains above a bakery, stands with a friend through a burial, takes punishment on the ice, repairs the pitch of a shuttered kill floor, meets a young woman in a mountain diner, and at first light buries what he loves.Told first in a voice that will not stop talking, then in one that nearly has, Hard Labour for Hard Men is a diptych about labour as identity, masculinity as ordeal, and tenderness expressed through the work of hands. It asks what a man can pass on without also passing on the wound. A butcher and boxer confronts what labour, violence and fatherhood leave behind. This item is printed on demand.
