Omschrijving
Ducks - Two Years In The Oil Sands SC - Before there was Kate Beaton, New YorkTimes bestselling cartoonist of Hark! A Vagrant, there was Katie Beaton of theCape Breton Beatons, specifically Mabou, a tight-knit seaside community wherethe lobster is as abundant as beaches, fiddles, and Gaelic folk songs. With thesingular goal of paying off her student loans, Katie heads out west to takeadvantage of Alberta’s oil rush—part of the long tradition of East Coasters whoseek gainful employment elsewhere when they can’t find it in the homeland theylove so much. Katie encounters the harsh reality of life in the oil sands,where trauma is an everyday occurrence yet is never discussed.
Beaton’snatural cartooning prowess is on full display as she draws colossal machineryand mammoth vehicles set against a sublime Albertan backdrop of wildlife, northernlights, and boreal forest. Her first full length graphic narrative, Ducks: TwoYears in the Oil Sands is an untold story of Canada: a country that pridesitself on its egalitarian ethos and natural beauty while simultaneouslyexploiting both the riches of its land and the humanity of its people.
