| 520 | |a In this candid and darkly humorous memoir, a Montreal garbageman shares his experiences working in waste management for more than twenty years. Blending personal stories with sharp social commentary, he offers an eye-opening look at the demanding, dangerous, and often overlooked work of keeping cities clean. Drawing on his background in sociology, the author explores society's relationship with waste, consumer culture, and the people who handle what others throw away. Filled with vivid anecdotes, reflections on sustainable living, and insights into the culture of sanitation workers, this memoir challenges readers to think differently about garbage, labor, and modern life. | ||
