Hannah Eaton: “How could England very quietly sneak in real authoritarian into government? You could do two things. You could deter people for no legal reason. You devolve power to legal councils so that corporations could run the prison system. We’ve got places like Jarls wood. We do detain people for no real reason. It’s not dystopian, its an altered reflection of what actually goes on.”

Listen again as Hannah Eaton and Comics Laureate Hannah Berry chat comics, nightmares and Alison Bechdel (as well as Hannah’s latest graphic novel, Blackwood) on Brighton Book Club Podcast.

This podcast was recorded in September 2020 before the publication of Blackwood.
