Research interests

I teach and research in the areas of twentieth and twenty-first century literature and film and have a particular interest in lliterature/film and gender, the recent German novel and the films of Wim Wenders and Rainer Werner Fassbinder.  I have recently completed a project on the collaborative works of Wim Wenders and Peter Handke (with Martin Brady, King's College London), funded by the AHRC.

I supervise or co-supervise nine PhD students on a wide range of German-focused and comparative projects on twentieth and twenty-first century film and literature.
