Put together a wee modernism/contemporary lit Starter Pack (because there simply wasn't not enough research/teaching prep/admin/housework to keep me occupied)

DM me if I've made any glaring omissions or besmirched your good name by implying that you're a modernist

'So the bird alights.'

Currently working on Mina Loy's infamously unfinishing experimental Islands in the Air contained in the Beinecke Library (although an edited publication of these texts is on the way from Karla Kelsey with Yale University Press!). Here is one of my favourite pages.

Alright, first post on Here!
A short intro: I'm a French ECR, working as an ATER at Sorbonne Université in Paris. My research focuses on transatlantic modernism and surrealism, especially women writers and artists of the 1920s and 1930s. I did my PhD on Mina Loy. I love archives, tea, and the sea ✨
