Abstract
This paper draws upon a SSHRC funded research study on lifelong learning, fiction writing, and creativity to discuss how the work of Paulo Freire and Martha Nussbaum draw attention to the importance of education for democratic learning. Using fiction as a way to foster dialogue may enhance opportunities for adults to engage in critical debate and to rethink how they will “read the world”.
