Her work focuses on the intersection of literature and philosophy through the lens of 20th-century hybrid novelist-philosophers Simone de Beauvoir and Iris Murdoch. She explores how their metaphysical and moral thought is expressed through literary metaphors, the value of prose literature, and the role of multilingualism in shaping their ideas.
