A brilliant and nuanced look at the oil sands, our identities, and what a loss of community does to and for us.  I’ll be thinking of this book for many years to come.

Kate Beaton’s sequential storytelling is reflective and moving. I learned a lot about the Canadian oil sands and the people who work there in search of financial hope like herself. Nothing is ever black and white and I think Kate illustrates that reality beautifully. Everyone who works in the sands is changed, even Kate.
