Still Here: Memoirs of Trauma, Illness and Loss explores the
history, ethics, and cross-cultural range of memoirs focusing on
illness, death, loss, displacement, and other experiences of
trauma. From Walt Whitman's Civil War diaries to kitchen table
survivor-to-survivor storytelling following Hurricane Katrina, from
social media posts from a refugee detention centre, to poetry by
exiles fleeing war zones, the collection investigates trauma memoir
writing as healing, as documentation of suffering and disability,
and as political activism. Editors Bunty Avieson, Fiona Giles and
Sue Joseph have brought together this scholarly collection as a
sequel to their earlier Mediating Memory (Routledge 2018),
providing a closer look at the specific concerns of trauma memoir,
including conflict and intergenerational trauma; the therapeutic
potential and risks of trauma life writing; its ethical challenges;
and trauma memoir giving voice to minority experiences.
