The women and non-binary people featured in this book represent different backgrounds, creative journeys and walks of life. They come from every province and territory in Canada, though many have roots in other parts of the world. The one thing they all have in common is that they have followed their own path in life and have a unique story to tell. https://fvrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S21C1949829
