Nicholas Frangipane

Originally from Boston, I'm a graduate student in the English department at the University at Buffalo. I study and write about the contemporary novel and narrative theory. I like novels that question their own ability to know the events they recount, especially when they deal with the limits of literature, language and memory. I'm also interested in postmodern theory and film adaptation. I've given papers on Ulysses at the 2009 North American James Joyce Symposium and the 2012 Mid-Atlantic American Conference for Irish Studies, and on memory and neuroscience in the work of Alice Munro at the 2013 North East Modern Language Association conference.
