Project: Contesting Gender and Genre: Masculinity in Contemporary Asian American Crime Fiction, 1981-2011

My research focuses on masculinity in modern and contemporary American fiction. My PhD, completed at the University of Edinburgh in 2017 and published by Routledge in 2018, explored the development of masculinities in the American 1970s, and the post-sixties, post-Vietnam, and ultimately post-Fordist shocks that the United States experienced during that decade.
