Listen "Alison McCreesh: Exploring the magic and nuance of life in the North in her latest graphic novel"
Episode Synopsis
When Alison McCreesh was 21, she left her Quebec hometown and hitchhiked to the Yukon searching for something she couldn't quite put her finger on — and hasn't left. She talks to Mattea Roach about her graphic novel Degrees of Separation, which reflects on the everyday lives of people in the North... and how it's changed during her time there.
