Description
Kate Beaton’s moving and potent graphic memoir, Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands, details her time spent working in the brutal, merciless environment of Canada’s oil sands. Beaton provides viewers with an unapologetic glimpse into the psychological and personal costs of working in one of the world’s most hazardous and contentious professions through her pictures and evocative narrative. Isolation, labor, environmental destruction, and the difficulties of negotiating gender and power dynamics in a male-dominated workplace are among the topics covered in the memoir.
As she considers her experiences, Beaton’s wit and keen sense of humor offer brief respites, but the book also explores the difficulties and paradoxes of working in a field that is heavily involved in environmental issues worldwide. Ducks is more than just a survival story; it’s a provocative account of the conflict between the ecological costs of the oil industry and economic need. Beaton gives readers a distinct and significant viewpoint on contemporary labor and environmental justice through her visually arresting and emotionally unvarnished graphic narrative.
