520    "For three summers beginning when he was 16, cartoonist 
       Guy Delisle worked at a pulp and paper factory in Quebec 
       City. Factory Summers chronicles the daily rhythms of life
       in the mill, and the twelve-hour shifts he spent in a hot,
       noisy building filled with arcane machinery. Delisle takes
       his noted outsider perspective and applies it domestically,
       this time as a boy amongst men through the universal rite 
       of passage of the summer job. Even as a teenager, 
       Delisle's keen eye for hypocrisy highlights the tensions 
       of class and the rampant sexism an all-male workplace 
       permits... Guy and his dad aren't close, and Guy's 
       witnessing of the workplace politics and toxic masculinity
       leaves him reconciling whether the job was the reason for 
       his dad's unhappiness. On his days off, Guy found refuge 
       in art, a world far beyond the factory floor. Delisle 
       shows himself rediscovering comics at the public library, 
       and preparing for animation school--only to be told on the
       first day, 'There are no jobs in animation.' Eager to 
       pursue a job he enjoys and to avoid a career of 
       unhappiness, Guy throws caution to the wind."--|cProvided
