Hello,
Thank you for your reply to my earlier message.

I would like to get the word out about a new  book that applies Bakhtin 
which has just been published by Northwestern University Press.    The 
title is Testimony after Catastrophe:  Narrating the Traumas of Political 
Violence.

I am interested in ways for me to get the word out on my book, including a 
book review, or article in a newsletter, or presentation at meetings etc...

If you are aware of any of these possibilities, I'd greatly appreciate it 
if you'd let me know.

A description of the book appears below and in the attachment.

Thanks
Steve Weine


         Dr. Stevan M. Weine is the author of Testimony after Catastrophe: 
Narrating the Traumas of Political Violence published in 2006 by 
Northwestern University Press.
         Testimony after Catastrophe is a deeply involving, compassionate, 
and occasionally confrontational blend of dialogic theory and practical 
experience emerging from the author’s decade-long work in Europe and 
Chicago with survivors of the Balkan wars.
         Stevan Weine focuses on the hope survivors express again and again 
that, no matter what horrors or humiliations they have endured, some good 
might come of their stories. Weine examines testimonies from four 
historical nightmares of the twentieth century and, applying the theory of 
Mikhail Bakhtin, seeks to read them as the stories they are meant to be, 
fully conveying their legitimacy, resourcefulness, power­and, finally, hope.
         Caryl Emerson author of The First Hundred Years of Mikhail Bakhtin 
wrote:  “Weine is a wonderfully graceful writer, and his subject matter is 
central to our time”.     Jerrold M. Post, author of Leaders and Their 
Followers in a Dangerous World, wrote, “Transcending a clinical approach, 
this path breaking book brings an interdisciplinary perspective to the 
testimony.”
