Shapeshifting : First Nations lyric nonfiction

Leane, Jeanine2024
Books, Manuscripts
Shapeshifting, co-edited by Jeanine Leane and Ellen van Neerven, is a wide-ranging collection of nonfiction by First Nations writers that breaks new ground. These lyric essays push the boundaries of nonfiction beyond the biographical or the academic, with pieces that experiment with form and embark on carefully crafting and re-crafting interventions that both challenge and expand existing genre structures. Shapeshifting brings to the fore a whole new genre waiting to take shape, to be formed, informed and re-formed by First Nations Australian writers. Contributors include Jennifer Kemarre Martiniello, Natalie Harkin, Timmah Ball, Daniel Browning, Alison Whittaker, Charmaine Papertalk Green, Melanie Saward, Rhianna Patrick, Hugo Comisari, Mykaela Saunders, Evelyn Araluen, Neika Lehman and Jim Everett / puralia meenamatta.
