Menton Journal
Michael Jackson held the Katherine Mansfield Writing Fellowship in 1982. Menton Journal interweaves a narrative of his family's life in the south ofFrance with stories of locals who became close friends and excerpts from the novel on which he was working. His year in Menton proved to be a turning point. Between the Côte d'Azur and its terraced hinterland hills a shadowy nemesis lay in wait. Nothing would ever be the same again.

Self-Alteration
How People Change Themselves Across CulturesMany of us feel a pressing desire to be different--to be other than who we are. The essays in Self-Alteration come at the subject of the self and its becoming through case studies of modes of transformation of the self. They do this with social processes and projects that reveal how the self acquires a non-trivial new meaning in and through its very process of alteration.

Critique of Identity Thinking

The Genealogical Imagination
Two Studies of Life Over Time“Michael Jackson has long been a source of inspiration for those of us interested in pushing the boundaries of anthropological writing, providing us with regular and often much-needed reminders of the high ethical stakes of such writerly experimentation. The Genealogical Imagination will be of immense interest to anthropologists, literary scholars, students and teachers of creative writing, and anyone interested in the expressive possibilities of writing as a means of exploring the ways in which humans exist in time.” - Stuart McLean, author of (Fictionalizing Anthropology: Encounters and Fabulations at the Edges of the Human) “I already have the sense that The Genealogical Imagination will not leave me alone in the years to come-that I will be haunted by it and worked upon by it in the way I am worked over by the stories of my own forebears. The Genealogical Imagination is an anthropological tour de force. It will inhabit the imagination of generations of anthropologists to come.” - Lisa Stevenson, author of (Life beside Itself: Imagining Care in the Canadian Arctic)

The Paper Nautilus
The Paper Nautilus is about loss - the forms it takes, how we go on living in the face of it,and the mysterious ways that new life and new beginnings are born of brokenness. The paper nautilus provides a vivid image of this interplay of death and rebirth since, for new life to begin, the angelically beautiful but fragile shell that sustained a former life must be shattered. Michael Jackson has recourse to his ethnographic fieldwork among the Kuranko of Sierra Leone, as well as autobiography and fiction, in exploring his theme. This book crosses and blends genres most engagingly. Beginning as a series of essays, it gradually morphs into a merssing work of the imagination in which the boundary between author and other becomes blurred, and the line between fact and fiction erased"--otago.ac.nz/otago/pres
