Description

Navigate the complexities of academic existence with Trickster in Tweed: The Quest for Quality in a Faculty Life. This autoethnography by communication scholar Tom Frentz explores how academics manage the daily realities of university life, from navigating bureaucracy and petty jealousies to facing the absurdities of the institutional system. Moving beyond professional hurdles, the book examines how individuals cope with the profound personal challenges that impact professional lives, including illness, sorrow, and death. Using the figure of Coyote, the Trickster from the American Indian world, Frentz provides a unique lens through which to view survival strategies in demanding environments. This work offers an articulate, amusing, and emotional look at the pursuit of quality while balancing the worlds of academia and medicine. It is an essential read for those interested in ethnographic narratives and the human side of professional struggle.
