In the groundbreaking Telling Lives: Exploring dimensions of narratives, the author illustrates as many facets as possible of the stories people tell about their lives. She demonstrates the interconnectedness between engagements in narrative research and shows that the theoretical understanding of the nature of narrative is bound up with the methods for biographical narrative research.

Marianne Horsdal is Professor in Educational Research at the University of Southern Denmark. She is seen as a key international specialist in the study of narratives.
