What a bold, ambitious, and, entirely necessary book Writing Intersectional Identities is. In it, Adsit and Byrd radically examine critical debates within cultural and identity theory and politics to consider how these debates open new possibilities, challenges, and responsibilities for creative writers. Historically wide-ranging and intellectually expansive, the book grounds keywords such as appropriation, intersectionality, and race, in rich, succinct, and timely discussions that provide countless opportunities for further exploration. But thats not all. Because even as Adsit and Byrd take on some of the most pressing issues in the larger fields of English and cultural studies, they refuse to look away from what these might mean for creative writing, its students and its teachers. I wish I had this book when I was starting out. It would have helped me a lot, and it would have helped my students too. * Professor Katharine Haake, Associate Chair of English, California State University, Northridge, USA * This book encourages students to engage critically with their culture and to evolve along with the cultural landscape. I will be returning to this book again and again as both a writer and a teacher. * Kate Moorhead, Lecturer in Creative Writing, University of East Anglia, UK *
