We leave Billy Bat Land and go about as far in the other direction we can go: a sober memoir about sexual assault, gendered violence, the people that culture produces, colonial violence, and climate change. If you'd like to read more about the cultural, economic, and historical context that Kate Beaton's Ducks emerges out of, we highly highly recommend reading this piece by Kawai Shen on Solrad.
