There is a specific kind of silence that hits a man when he sits in his truck after a long shift, the engine ticking as it cools, staring at a garage door that represents thirty years of mortgage payments. In that silence, the brass plaques on the office wall and the digits in the 401(k) often feel…

There is a specific kind of silence that settles into a man’s life somewhere between his thirty-fifth and forty-fifth year. It isn’t the silence of peace, but rather the quiet realization that the machinery is changing. The recovery after a weekend of heavy lifting takes three days instead of…

For decades, the sound of a man’s identity was the rhythmic thud of a hammer, the scratching of a pen on a ledger, or the steady hum of an engine. When two men meet for the first time, the second question asked—almost pulse-quickeningly fast after "What’s your name?"—is "What do you do?"
