Hello! I’m Charlotte K. Bartle, assistant professor of English at Lincoln University, Missouri, and a PhD candidate at the University of Wolverhampton (UK).

I work on nineteenth-century and neo-Victorian literature, with research centred on mourning, memory, and material culture, and a particular love of sensation fiction, crime, and the Gothic.

This website is a space for gathering my research, writing, and curious finds, and a place to explore the stories we tell, keep, and consume, past and present. Whether you’re a fellow academic or a curious reader, do feel free to stay a while and have a wander.
