This fact-based fiction is an academic novel that relies on fast-paced action as well as theoretical insights. Using the cultural icon of the zombie to address work alienation and contemporary apathy is perfect for the purposes of having the reader examine corporate greed in a global world. The cast of characters brings this global aspect to life. In the backdrop of the novel, a history of the zombie unfolds?a history of the violence that Haiti and African diaspora have suffered. Yet, it is Delta?s research into narratives of partner abuse that lead her to grapple with her own tragic past and take brave steps toward ending the abuse of others. This social justice book is based on award-winning research in rhetorical ethnography and is being assigned for courses in rhetoric, ethnography, narrative, organizational communication, and diversity, but would fit with others (e.g., ethics, interpersonal, public relations, journalism, sociology, philosophy) where examining the individual?s role in the life-world is not only promoted but expected. If the novel doesn?t do it, then the facts found at the end of the book should ?wake up? any remaining zombies. Robin Patric Clair is a Full Professor, Diversity Fellow and a Fellow to the Center of Creative Endeavors at Purdue University. She has won research awards in rhetoric, narrative, ethnography and organizational communication, including two ?Outstanding Book of the Year? awards, two ?Best Research Article of the Year? awards, the ?Golden Anniversary Award? and multiple ?Top Paper? Awards for her research. 410 0$aSocial Fictions Series 606 $aEducation 606 $aEducation, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O00000 615 0$aEducation. 615 14$aEducation, general. 676 $a813/.6 700 $aClair$b R.P$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01061166 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438331103321 996 $aZombie Seed and the Butterfly Blues$92517756 997 $aUNINA
