Description

"Exploring Different Perspectives And Voices New book is a fascinating fiction with a gritty realism that will draw readers in Philadelphia, PA - (September 2010) - The recession has left the economy reeling and many people stranded on the unemployment line. Loren Howell has been a teacher for sixteen years until a union forced him out and left him jobless for a year. His is just one of the Voices that readers will hear in a fascinating novel by Thomas Herninko. Chris Killens is the warehouse manager of a small supply company. He finds himself caught in the middle of a labor dispute in the recession of 1991. He is the one man in the company who deals with both the workers and the bosses and he struggles to get a settlement but tensions rise, positions harden until a strike is called. The men go out and the strike lasts for weeks. The strike reaches a climax of violence and tragedy before they settle but the hostility and mistrust remain. Voices is a novel of conflict, confrontation and the human spirit in hard times. It is a story told by many voices; people caught up in a tragedy and they struggle to understand and survive. Some find the way; others do not but each has a unique story to tell with a unique voice."
