The Iron Gates of Life

By David J. Murphy

The Iron Gates of Life is about the restrictions and prejudices that face any younger person trying to move on into young adulthood and a career of their own choosing. These five historically set short stories talk about the Holocaust, PTSD after Word War II and the Korean War, prejudice in the deep south in the 1960s, the growth of everyday addiction problems in the 1970s, and the need to tear down walls in the 1980s. The stories do not preach. But they teach and they illuminate. Recommended for emerging adult readers from the ages of15 to 21 years old.
