She is currently working on a book entitled Things Without Faces: Prosopopoeia in Medieval Writing, which is a new account of literary person-making, beginning with twelfth-century innovations in devotional imagery and speculative allegory and continuing to the reinvention of those figural techniques in the French and English poetry of the two centuries following.
