Jude Greene
The Quiet Carpenter of the Bottom
Built houses. Broke a marriage. Still measuring the cost.
I built things to last—houses, a marriage, a life. But I was a man with a hammer in a world that wouldn’t let me swing it right. When the road job went to some white boy who couldn’t tell a nail from a doorknob, something cracked. Sula saw it. I think I wanted to hurt something. Or maybe just prove I could.
What I'm Into: measuring twice, the weight of a promise, carpentry tools, Sula's laughter, Nel's silence
