Description
Laurel Richardson's personal and intellectual journey is revealed in this thought-provoking exploration of writing and identity. Over ten years, she has recorded her thoughts and experiences through traditional and experimental writings, creating new ways of reading and writing.
The book applies sociological imagination to the writing process, connecting her life to her work and stimulating readers to consider their own writing in personal, social, and political contexts. With grace, elegance, and clarity, Richardson shares her insights into how our circumstances shape what we write and who we become.
