I am currently completing a monograph on encyclopaedism in contemporary fiction, focusing specifically on Don DeLillo, Leslie Marmon Silko, Roberto Bolaño, and Karen Tei Yamashita. Additionally, I am co-editing, with E. Paige Miller, a special issue of Textual Practice to commemorate the centenary of the publication of James Joyce's Ulysses.
