We are delighted to share that Dr. Reinekke Lengelle has won the Qualitative Book Award!
The Qualitative Book award recognizes books that make a major contribution to the study and practice of qualitative approaches through success in experimenting with new or traditional writing forms, the inclusion of critical reflections on the writing and research process, contributions to living meaningful lives, and insights into creating a socially just world. As in past years, the task to select winners for the award was a major challenge, given we received many excellent books for review.
In Writing the Self in Bereavement: A Story of Love, Spousal Loss, and Resilience, Dr. Reinekke Lengelle uses her abilities as a researcher, poet, and professor of therapeutic writing to tell a heartfelt and fearless story about her grief after the death of her spouse and the year and a half following his diagnosis, illness, and passing.
Please join us in congratulating Reinekke for her win of this significant award, and thanking the ICQI for this recognition.
