Still Here

Memoirs of Trauma, Illness and Loss

Edición de la obra Still Here

"Still Here . . . investigates the role and practices in contemporary culture of memoir focusing on illness, death, loss and other experiences of trauma; writing as cure, therapy, or healing narrative. Editors, Sue Joseph, Bunty Avieson and Fiona Giles have brought together this collection of scholarly essays that provide an overview of the areas which trauma memoir has tended to cover, for example: conflict and intergenerational trauma; the therapeutic benefits (or otherwise) of trauma life writing; the ethics of trauma memoir; and trauma memoir that gives voice to minority experiences.
