Square Haunting (2020) is a group biography of five women writers — H. D., Dorothy L. Sayers, Eileen Power, Jane Ellen Harrison and Virginia Woolf — who lived in Mecklenburgh Square, in London’s Bloomsbury, between the two world wars. It was longlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize and shortlisted for the RSL Ondaatje Prize. I wrote about the writing process here.

Gertrude Stein: an Afterlife (forthcoming, May 2025) is a biography exploring Stein’s self-mythologising, her determination to achieve renown for her avant-garde writing, and her partner Alice B. Toklas’s fraught stewardship of Stein’s posthumous legacy. I wrote about my discovery of previously unseen interviews Toklas conducted in the 1950s, which shed new light on the origins of Stein’s radical writing and of their storied relationship, here.
