An Autoethnography of Becoming a Qualitative Researcher chronicles Trude Klevan's personal experiences of her doctoral journey, with Alec Grant as an external academic resource and friend, and her subsequent entry into the neoliberal higher education environment. It gives a personal and intimate view of what it's like to become an academic.
This book is constructed as an extended dialogue which frequently utilizes email exchanges as data. Firmly grounded in the epistemic resource of friendship, it tells the story of the authors' symbiotic academic growth around their critical understanding and knowledge of qualitative inquiry and the purposes of such knowledge. The tale told is of the unfolding of a close and mutually beneficial relationship, entangled within sometimes facilitative, sometimes problematic, environmental contexts. It uses these experiences to describe, explore, and critically interrogate some underlying themes of the philosophies, politics, and practices of qualitative inquiry, and of higher education. Disrupting conventional academic norms through their work, friendship, and correspondence, Trude and Alec offer a critical and epistemological view of what it's like to become a qualitative researcher, and how we can do things differently in higher education.
This book is suitable for all researchers and students, their supervisors, mentors, and teachers, and academics of qualitative research and autoethnography, and those interested in critiques of higher education.

"With this playful, poetic, philosophically-informed text, Klevan and Grant use autoethnography to trouble tedious, suffocating, and perverse practices and expectations of social research. They offer novel questions about research design, show how we make knowledge happen, and demonstrate the importance of being collaborative and flexible with our research. A brilliant work of friendship and social justice; a necessary read for all qualitative scholars."

"Over the past twenty years working collaboratively with David Carless I have experienced first-hand how, by developing caring, relational and non-hierarchical ways of doing research, it is possible to grow as a human being, as well as an academic/researcher. Becoming a Qualitative Researcher follows such an arc by documenting parallel paths of developing friendship and developing scholarship. The book opens the doctoral journey to scrutiny through phenomenology, narrative and discourse, while also being a warm hearted, deeply relational and provocatively theoretical book. It is full of wonderfully rich and insightful conversations and reflections, while also challenging taken for granted concepts. Alec has always been a "cage rattler". Here he shows us, alongside and with Trude, a befriending and collaborative text that has the capacity to nurture and inspire, while also being a companion."

"What we have here is a stimulating dialogic conversation between two researchers about friendship, about theory, about life, about the ways we live in this world as researchers, as academics, as scholars, and yet, as friends. Alec and Trude brilliantly challenge our understanding of concepts once thought to be unrelated to academic life or scholarly endeavors by showing, with a very keen sense of awareness, how our existence as scholars is connected to our existence as people living in the world, and in particular the relationships we form as a result of human connection. Kudos to Alec and Trude for making this research palatable, for being brave enough to trouble our understanding of ideas anchored in time (friendship, becoming, truth, curiosity) and giving new meaning, or, should I say, more nuanced meaning to the relevance of these terms as we engage in qualitative research. I walked away from this book questioning everything, which I believe, ultimately, was the goal of the authors. Thank you, Alec and Trude, for making me consider who I am in the process of becoming."
Renata Ferdinand, New York City College of Technology, USA
"This elegantly crafted, thought-provoking and passionate book shows the joys, benefits and complications of a novice researcher and a more experienced academic engaging in a collaborative autoethnography to explore the processes involved in continually becoming critical qualitative researchers over time. In the act of writing stories for, and with, one another as friends, in an open-ended, unfinalized and dialogic manner characterized by vulnerability, care, compassion, mutual respect and trust, Trude Klevan and Alec Grant challenge both themselves and their readers to reconceptualize how we make claims to know about the world around us, and how we construct ourselves as qualitative researchers in doing so. They also gift us a range of possibilities and unexpected openings for rewilding the academic self, as part of an autoethnographic project involved in the infinite game that resists and refuses the rationality of the neoliberal academy, which insidiously pervades out daily lives and hollows out our souls. I hope, like me, readers will take the opportunity to immerse themselves in the text and accept the cordial invitation from the authors to join their conversation with a sense of curiosity, and consider where this might take us in the future."
