It draws on Conversation Analysis to understand how couples talk draws on their language repertoires in sophisticated ways in telling stories and reveals that there are gendered differences in their language use. The book offers new insights into both storytelling and gender studies."" --Tony Liddicoat, Professor of Applied Linguistics, University of Warwick, UK
