Dr Lindsey Moore's first book, Arab, Muslim, Woman: Voice and Vision in Postcolonial Literature and Film (Routledge, 2008) is an interdisciplinary examination of a wide range of Arab women's postcolonial fiction, autobiography, film and other visual media. She continues to work on Arab women's writing and visual media, and on postcolonial women's writing more broadly. She recently edited a symposium on 'Glocal Diasporas' for the Journal of Commonwealth Literature (2010) and is editing a special issue of Postcolonial Text (forthcoming, 2011/12) entitled 'Glocal Imaginaries'. She has also written on expatriate American writer Paul Bowles. She is currently writing an article on representations of Islamism in selected contemporary Arab fiction and developing a new comparative book-length project on postcolonial women's writing in a 'glocal' frame.

Dr Moore is the Principal Investigator of the AHRC-funded project 'Islamism in Arab Fiction and Film, 1947 to the Present' (with Dr Arthur Bradley and Dr Abir Hamdar), Feb. 2009 - Feb. 2010. For further information go to: http://www.lancs.ac.uk/fass/projects/islamism/index.htm)

She is on the steering group of the Centre for Transcultural Writing and Research and a co-organiser of Trans-Scriptions, a series that brings together creative writers, publishers and academics to discuss interfaces between 'Writing, Culture and Location'.
