From the sediments of natural structures to the erosion of memory, Kate Carruthers Thomas uses beautifully controlled metaphor to explore the tensions between familiarity and strangeness, whether in how we perceive the world or is the changing dynamics relationships. Poised, honed and sharply observed, with a feeling for what goes on beneath the surface of things, Navigation is an outstanding debut collection.   What living is  We were chasing the dead that day, travelling west through lowlands of drift-deep green, edged with cloud-water, compressed by sky;  chasing blood-thick threads through unremarkable towns, trying untranslatable streets on for size. Excavating the names of the dead.  Among sodden stone records and lumpen, brown grass, the mapping of dates on desire to belong, your thoughts turned to somebody recently passed,   We toasted her later, you rehearsed her best moments, how much she was missed. Then, the past drawing level, we talked of how love can survive a cold climate   and what living is.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49596306981137,"sku":"GOR013490489","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1788640217.jpg?v=1751423236"},{"product_id":"rethinking-student-belonging-in-higher-education-book-kate-carruthers-thomas-9781032401751","title":"Rethinking Student Belonging in Higher Education","description":"Arguing for an understanding of belonging in higher education as relational, complex and negotiated, particularly in reference to non-traditional students, Rethinking Student Belonging in Higher Education counters prevailing assumptions for what it means to belong and how institutional policy is shaped and implemented around traditional students.   Bringing theoretical insights into institutional areas of policy and practice, this book:    considers what it means to belong as a non-traditional student in a higher education environment designed for traditional students; presents the argument for belonging in line with theoretical insights of Bourdieu, Brah and Massey; illustrates belonging through case studies drawn from empirical research; and presents the argument for a borderland analysis of belonging in higher education, identifying key features and advantages of this theoretical framework.  Reframing belonging within a neo-liberal, marketised higher education sector, Rethinking Student Belonging in Higher Education is a topical and accessible point of reference for any academic in the field of higher education policy and practice, as well as those involved in ensuring widening participation, equality, diversity, inclusion and fair access.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51257303564561,"sku":"NIN9781032401751","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51354809368849,"sku":"NGR9781032401751","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52590885503249,"sku":"NLS9781032401751","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1032401753.jpg?v=1750951360"},{"product_id":"rethinking-student-belonging-in-higher-education-book-kate-carruthers-thomas-9781138311374","title":"Rethinking Student Belonging in Higher Education","description":"Arguing for an understanding of belonging in higher education as relational, complex and negotiated, particularly in reference to non-traditional students, Rethinking Student Belonging in Higher Education counters prevailing assumptions for what it means to belong and how institutional policy is shaped and implemented around traditional students.
