Evaluating fictocriticism as both an art form and as a vehicle for higher theory and criticism, he offers and proposes further academic attention across a plethora of sociocultural, artistic, scientific, educational, political, and historical fields. <p/>Propelled by the work(s) of Roland Barthes, the 'godfather of fictocriticism', the ultimate goal of this research and text is to provide new and expanded reading tools that both explain the subjectivity and context of fictocritical writings and simultaneously innovate on the form.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Hilarious, moving, wonderfully idiotic in a masterful writerly way ... simply a very good contemporary, multicultural take on the appalled (almost) European (almost) intellectual in Australia wondering not about life and death but road trains and how to get a promise about time via texting ... and the casual way our European ancestors pass on magic and hate and a version of heteronormativity!--Professor Katrina M. Schlunke, School of Literary and Cultural Studies, University of Tasmania<br><br>The work engages one through its sense of energy and commitment, its comic tone and style, and its heightened self-awareness.--Dr Moya Costello, School of Arts and Social Sciences, Southern Cross University<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Dr Pawel Cholewa studied Creative Arts and Writing, Language, Communication and Culture at CQUniversity Australia.
