Narrating Midlife: Crisis, Transition, and Transformation is rooted
in a discussion about why it is important to address the midlife
years in ways that challenge and interrogate the myths that
surround this phase of life. Although readers are free to construct
their own meaning after reading each narrative, they are encouraged
to attend to the ways in which each narrative reveals how the
author grapples with their particular issues communicatively. More
important, readers are invited to see the power of narrative
re-framing as authors seek to understand, interpret and "live"
midlife change(s) in ways that are empowering and life affirming.
In this book, contributors spin compelling and meaningful
narratives about change at midlife. The empty nest, the surprise
discovery of cancer, re-defining one's life at midlife and
re-imagining long term commitment after divorce are just some of
the topics explored in this book. Auto-ethnographically crafted,
the narratives presented throughout the book aim to show how
managing and living through change at midlife is very much a
communicative endeavor.
