Book Review: Oscar Wilde's Prison Writings

I'm pleased to say that my review of Nicholas Frankel's _The Annotated Prison Writings of Oscar Wilde_ has been published in _Textual Cultures_. The volume is fascinating and well done, while _Textual Cultures_ is open access, meaning that anyone can read it! Check out the review here: https://scholarworks.iu.edu/journals/....

The text of _De Profundis_ included in Frankel's book is especially valuable, as it is hard to find elsewhere.

Guillermo del Toro

As part of some writing that I have done since the publication of my book, I recently published a review essay on Guillermo del Toro's museum exhibition showcasing his collection, _Guillermo del Toro: At Home with Monsters_. The review was published in a free online journal, the _Journal of Neo-Victorian Studies_, and includes pictures from the exhibition as well as discussion of many of del Toro's different movies. I even managed to work in some discuss of _The Shape of Water_. Please don't hesitate to check out the review:

Discussion of _Melodramatic Imperial Writing_

_Melodramatic Imperial Writing_ was recently featured in the "Author of the Month" section of the California State University, Long Beach publication Inside CSULB. I talk a little bit about the argument of the book and connect it with some contemporary trends in the US.
