About Me

I have a BA in liberal arts with advanced degrees in writing and literature. I've long been interested in how science is represented in literature (including but not limited to science fiction) and other media, and in the ethical and social implications of scientific movements. I've written several academic articles on racial identity in science fiction and also done some work on Darwin in literature. 3 favorite novels relating science to past historical periods: The Voyage of The Narwhal, by Andrea Barrett; Angels and Insects, by A.S. Byatt (the first novella, Morpho Eugenia); and, less stikingly but still a great book, The Mannikin, by Joanna Scott.
