She is also editing The Turn of the Screw and Other Tales, volume 26 of the Complete Fiction of Henry James for Cambridge University Press. Her other interests include interactions between science and literature in the Victorian and Modernist periods, Gerard Manley Hopkins, the Pre-Raphaelites, and Transatlantic thought and culture 1850-1930.
She is the author of Brief Lives: Henry James (London: Hesperus Press, 2012); Seeing and Believing: Henry James and the Spiritual World (New York: Palgrave, 2006) and Teach Yourself Writing Essays and Dissertations (London: Hodder, 2007).
