She is currently completing a book manuscript titled Novel Institutions: Realism, Anachronism, and the Nineteenth-Century Novel, which rethinks British realism through an attention to the nineteenth-century Irish novel. She has published several articles in the fields of Irish and Victorian Studies. Her most recent published work includes essays on cultural authority in public humanities initiatives, metaphors of indigeneity in nineteenth-century Irish nationalist writing, and national time in Elizabeth Gaskell’s North and South.
