Claire has peer-reviewed research published by leading academic journals and publishers in her field, including an article in Literary London and chapters in edited collections published by Palgrave Macmillan. She is currently in the process of expanding and developing her research portfolio by working towards the publication of a monograph based on contemporary British fiction which considers new theoretical perspectives by which to approach London literature through an investigation of postmodernism, the post postmodern, feminist and postcolonial readings of literature at and around the turn of the twenty-first century.
Claire is also working on a number of other projects, including an edited collection on critical approaches to and readings of eighteenth century literature with the working title Laurence Sterne & the Contemporary which involves a consideration of Sterne’s literature in light of twentieth and twenty-first century theory and texts; a project on twentieth and twenty-first century punk poetry, with the working titlePunk Poetry: New Critical Engagements; and is also co-writing a chapter on Sarah Waters’ The Little Stranger for an edited collection on the contemporary Horror novel. Claire’s latest publications include a chapter in Reassessing the Twentieth-Century Canon which considers the postmodern techniques of Scottish author Alasdair Gray (June 2014).
