Full Description
This book explores the role and agency of stories and storytelling in understanding places and in revealing how places tell stories. Addressing themes of colonialism, more-than-human agency, environment, dislocation, atmospheres, borders, dwelling, enchantment, haunting, care and hope, this book reveals the power of stories to make and unmake worlds. It illuminates how some stories come to dominate ways of being and knowing while others are excluded, hidden and overlooked. This book contends with the ethical complexities of storytelling and the political implications of the stories that are shared and heard. Ultimately, it demonstrates how stories can provide alternative, critical and progressive ways of knowing and encountering place.
