As a genre that confounds the distinction between fiction and
non-fiction, fictocriticism continues to gain currency. It solves a
problem for researchers and writers who do not wish to be held to
that somewhat artificial division, and who consider their research
methods necessarily to include the stylistic experiments that show
their research and thought processes. Research, knowledge of the
world, that continues to be 'written up', 'after the fact' in the
usual academic genres, has a tendency to re-inscribe the status
quo. The world stays the way it is; change, surprise and experiment
elude the writer. Stephen Muecke, one of the originators of
fictocritical writing, presents a selection of his best essays in
this innovative genre. In doing so he offers a rare and important
theorization of the potential of speculative methods across
disciplines including Literary Studies, Philosophy, Anthropology,
Geography, and Science and Technology Studies.
