Normal: A Chaplain a Community with Hiv/Aids and the Eternal Life of Stories

This book chronicles the intersection of chaplaincy autopathography (illness narratives) and stigmatized illness through the observations and stories of a chaplain working at a facility for people with HIV and AIDS. Trained as both an ethnographer and a chaplain Audrey Elisa Kerr uses memoir to bridge the relationship between caregiver and patient and allows stories of marginality to frame both her patients stories and her own.
