Raised in New Zealand, Sophie completed a BA (Hons) and an MA in French at the University of Auckland, going on to pursue a PhD in French at the University of Western Australia. Prior to working at UNE, Sophie taught English at Université Jean Moulin Lyon III in Lyon, France, and then French language at UWA. Her research interests include dystopian literature, social issues in literature, and French author Michel Houellebecq; these are reflected in her doctoral thesis which focused on declinism and dystopia in Houellebecq’s novels. She also has an interest in medieval French literature.
