Jesse Bertron: “A Plumber’s Guide to Light is a love letter to the building trades and to the people who work them. This book is populated by people who think they will be saved by work and by those who know they won’t. It looks at the fragile seam that runs between the job site and the home, about the ways that family and work bleed into one another.” (web)

Jesse Bertron: “As the son of a carpenter, I was raised in the slippery language of the building trades. There are three names for everything, and knowing a thing’s name often precedes the knowledge of what the thing actually is. I continue to be amazed at the sheer pleasure most tradesmen take in words. Why be satisfied with accuracy? When I ask for a wrench, I want to ask in abundance.”
