Ordinary Lives: Studies in the Everyday

Review
Ben Highmore’s Ordinary Lives is a groundbreaking intervention into the burgeoning field of everyday life studies. It takes contemporary cultural studies into some exciting new critical directions [..] Highmore’s book is digressive but always coherent, deeply personal but always scholarly, entertaining and evocative but always rigorous and thought-provoking – Joe Moran, Reader in Cultural History, Liverpool John Moores University, UK
‘”Ordinary Lives”, in its refusal to engage with ‘The Media’, provides a clear and politically important framework for us to use with students to help draw ‘microsketches of ordinary media reception’.’ – POV
