- The Prosthetic Imagination: A History of the Novel as Artificial Life (Cambridge University Press: 2020) reads the novel as form, from its early incarnations in the early modern period to the present day, as it relates to shifting technologies for the production of artificial life. The monograph, supported by a Leverhulme Trust fellowship, extensively rethinks the role of the novel in imagining and shaping our life-worlds throughout the history of modernity over its 422 pages and is the product of five years of research and writing. Reviewers have described it as a ‘major book’; ‘formidable’ and ‘majestic’.
