  • Summary

  • Alissa York is a Canadian author whose novels and short stories have won her international acclaim.

    Her latest book, Far Cry, immerses the reader in the harsh conditions of a salmon cannery on the remote north west coast of British Columbia in 1922.

    It’s a haunting tale of survival, forbidden love, addiction, and jealousy, with a mystery at its heart and the Canadian wilderness all around.

    Join Alissa and Red as they explore the history of Canada’s working class, and man’s often jagged interaction with nature.
