"Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands" is a powerful memoir by Kate Beaton, who recounts her experience working in the Alberta oil sands to pay off student debt. Through her own artwork and storytelling, she captures the isolation, harsh conditions, and pervasive sexism of life in the male-dominated work camps, all rendered with her signature blend of sharp wit and poignant observation. The cover, also by Beaton, reflects the stark, intimate tone of her journey.
