You cannot walk away from this book without the profound feeling that there is something missing from mainstream education. This book illustrates what that missing force is.

This book offers an accessible introduction to the teaching and creation of Poetic Autoethnography. Central to the method – and the book – is the idea that poetry and its creation are ideally suited to disrupt conventional narratives about the world and our place in it, give voice to the marginalised and the oppressed, and counter fascism and authoritarian discourses.

Using the work of David Hanauer as a guide, the editors offer a detailed explanation of the process of poetic autoethnography, accompanied by examples of the genre from writers with a variety of backgrounds and experiences.

The book is an ideal starting point for students, teachers and researchers hoping to use this creative and innovative research method in their own writing and classrooms.
