Nora Fulton

holds a PhD in English Literature from Concordia University. She lives in Montréal, Québec, Canada. Her  SSHRC-funded doctoral research investigated the relationship that philosophical treatments of the event have with poetry, with a particular focus on the way that this relationship models a cissexual/transsexual difference and the sexed capacity for change. She is also the author of four collections of poetry, as well as criticism relating to film, music, and literature more broadly. Her poetic and critical production is indebted to traditions of avant-garde, conceptual, and feminist writing.
