Item description from seller

304 Pages with Index. The stories people tell about themselves are interesting not only for the events nd characters they describe but for something in the construction of the stories themselves. The ways in which individuals recount their histories - what they emphasize and omit, their stance as protagonists or victims, the relationship the story establishes between teller and audience - all shape what individuals can claim of their own lives. Personal stories are not merely a way of telling someone (or oneself) about one's life; they are the means by which identities may be fashioned.
