Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands by Kate Beaton

challenging sad slow-paced

2.5

In general, I wish Kate Beaton would use less dialogue and more varied compositions in her panels. While I think the story is a pertinent and fascinating to explain that world she inhabited, I think more parallels could have been drawn with the ducks. I think I'm wanting more Alison Bechdel in her work, with stronger leaning on symbolism.
