Review # 1 was written on 2016-11-11 00:00:00 Matthias Otto This book would probably be considered more for the academic than the layman; it is difficult to approach and a highly involved read. Nonetheless, for anyone interested in the dynamics of human interaction through language, its insights are indispensable. If you've ever found yourself wondering about conversation, even in the most general terms, this book is a good place to find the premises and assumptions unspoken in dialogue among friends. |
Review # 2 was written on 2011-08-28 00:00:00 Denise Seeley-navarre Conversational analysis at its finest, but also a weird self-reflective experience, wherein my fascination with the lives of the people whose talking styles Tannen is analysing (including her own), forces me to consider how I relish "gossip", even when it has nothing to do with me. All people who talk to other people should read this book. |
