Reviews

This important volume sets the grounds for reframing literacy education as a means for the institutional construction and reorganization of space and time... [It] shows how place and time shape and influence, enable and constrain peoples' cultural practices with texts, whether in formal institutional or community and family settings. Allan Luke, from the Foreword What could have been lost is a phrase that is fitting for what [this] book does for the literacy community: it saves memories and preserves agency in elegant and eloquent ways... The front story of every chapter is to develop and enhance accounts of time and space in literacy research and the back-story is how we become and change as researchers across time and space. This is the story that intrigued me. Time and space, as they are seen in nuanced and inflected ways in the book, expose fundamental truths about life and learning... Jennifer Rowsell, Brock University, Canada. From the Afterword
