Carolyn Beasley is a lecturer in Writing at Swinburne University. Her research areas include crime fiction, fiction, the relationship between fiction and the city, and creative writing pedagogy.
All three are currently part of an interdisciplinary team exploring notions of the symbolic city and how combined analyses of lived experience, political discourse and popular imagining contribute to a greater understanding of a city's form and function.
