Book Synopsis
It is the anthropologist's fate to always be between things: countries, languages, cultures, even realities. The author celebrates the creative power of the between, showing how it can transform us, changing our conceptions of who we are, what we know, and how we live in the world.

Trade Review
"Through the years, Stoller has explored profound theoretical insights through dramatic and often humorous stories, moving between the domains of ethnography, fieldwork memoir, illness memoir, fiction, and scholarly articles. The Power of the Between is a memorable disciplinary memoir: vivid, eloquent, and laden with wisdom." - Kirin Narayan, author of My Family and Other Saints"
