Her first book, Open Secrets: The Literature of Uncounted Experience (Stanford University Press, 2008), received the ACLA’s René Wellek Award in 2010. Her current book project titled Provident Improvisers: Parables of Subsistence from Wordsworth to Benjamin focuses on figures of pastoral worldliness, provisionality, and commonness (with "common" understood in the double sense of the political antithesis to enclosure and of the ordinary, vernacular, or profane).
