In this episode of U of A Reads, we’re thrilled to welcome Carissa Halton, ’03 BA — the author of Little Yellow House: Finding Community in a Changing Neighbourhood and an award‑winning writer whose creative nonfiction has appeared in outlets like The Globe & Mail, Alberta Views, and Today’s Parent.

Her stunning debut novel, Revolution Songs, pulls us into a 1930s Rocky Mountain town: Annie Jalmer finds herself torn between opposing forces — a communist union, the rise of the Canadian Ku Klux Klan, family loyalties, and a world on the brink of upheaval.

In this conversation, we dive into Carissa’s journey from nonfiction to fiction, how she blends historical research with compelling storytelling, and the ways that place, politics, and community shape her work. Fans of historical fiction and rich, character-driven stories will find plenty to enjoy in this episode.
