Research Profile

Huk is co-editor of Contemporary British Poetry: Essays in Theory and Criticism (SUNY Press, 1996), editor of Assembling Alternatives: Reading Postmodern Poetries Transnationally (Wesleyan University Press, 2003), and author of Stevie Smith: Between the Lines (Palgrave Books, 2005). Her numerous essays on contemporary poetry and poetics have appeared in book collections from presses such as Blackwell, Cornell UP and Edinburgh UP as well as in journals such as Contemporary Literature and The Yale Journal of Criticism. She has written on issues ranging from working class difference in writing and performance (in the work of Tony Harrison) to gender politics (in the work Smith as well as of avant-garde poets such as Denise Riley) and racial inflections in radical practice (such as that of Jean 'Binta' Breeze and David Marriott). Her new book project involves transnational avant-garde aesthetics and postmodern theology.
