In this episode, Shaimond and guest co-host Dr. Gary Cusick interview graphic novelist and researcher Gareth Brookes. Brookes discusses his graphic novel, “A Thousand Coloured Castles” which features a main character with Charles Bonnet syndrome (CBS). Inspired by his grandmother's experiences with the condition, Brookes aims to raise awareness and empathy by portraying the visual hallucinations associated with CBS. He describes the nuances of CBS and its impact on people living with the condition and their families. The conversation also covers Brookes' research into comics, his creative process, and the potential of graphic novels in educating about medical conditions.
