Factory Summers by Guy Delisle Hardcover Book

Factory Summers by Guy Delisle Hardcover Book

At the age of sixteen, Guy Delisle takes a summer job at a local paper mill where his father has worked for the past thirty years. While his dad is an engineer with a white collar office, Guy is on the floor among the clanging machines and cursing lifers. The work oscillates between perilous and mind numbing. Teenage Guy slowly starts to observe the skill the average factory worker possesses whether it’s moving hundreds of pounds of paper with a flick of the wrist or deftly cleaning a wide swath of floor with a blast of compressed air. Guy often spots his father out the. Corner of his eye only to lose him and wonder is he was ever there at all. Factory Summers is a wistful, revelatory, nostalgic, funny, and youthful view of how the rest of our lives can so easily be laid out before us. The award winning cartoonist of Pyongyang and Hostage affirms his status as a brilliant observer of human ecosystems in this, his most personal work yet.
