Review:

This collection offers a sweeping analysis of the many types of life writing. The personal and instructional tone of the essays makes this book accessible to students, and the exercises at the end of each chapter will allow anyone who has their own story to tell find their voice. – Julie Taddeo, University of Maryland, USA

A comprehensive discussion of new and some older forms of life writing, ranging from affective and political cartographies, docu-memoirs and poetry to digital forms such as memes and GIFs. Writers’ accounts of their own practice enliven the volume, and the creative exercises at the end of each chapter will make this book invaluable. – Lyn Thomas, University of Sussex, UK
