DESCRIPTION

Autoethnographies of Loss

In this book, autoethnographies reflect a wide range of perspectives on grief and loss to reflect the unique and individual experiences of each contributor’s story while also analyzing broader cultural themes and discussing how we communicate about these experiences.


Grief and loss are fundamental aspects of the human experience. Narrative and Grief examines the desire to make sense out of the nonsensical by exploring specific stories of loss and grief, spanning from the loss of a parent, child, or partner, loss within larger family systems; and ambiguous and anticipatory loss to broader cultural aspects of grief. The autoethnographic essays in this book reflect on the unique and individual experiences of each contributor’s story. Simultaneously, these essays reveal that although each grief experience is unique, it is also collective, evoking broader cultural themes related to loss and grief. Scholars of communication, sociology, and family studies will find this book of particular interest.
