Many qualitative researchers love to work with narratives but don't want to attend to the demands of living alongside that Clandinin and Connelly's Narrative Inquiry: Experience and Story in Qualitative Research asks for or you are uncertain about how to use the three-dimensional narrative space to conduct an analysis. So the data collection process is over but now what will you do with all these stories? This book provides an answer and lots of good direction for enacting that answer. The book provides samples of narrative data and then articulates the process of moving from data collection through analysis. I have directed several novice researchers to this book and they have invariably loved it. I bought this most recent copy because I keep sharing the book and it seems to walk away and not return.
