(Fordham University Press), for which she received the Grand Prize French Voices Award from the Pen American Center. She is also the co-translator with Michael Naas of twelve books by philosophers Jacques Derrida, Jean-Luc Nancy and Jean-François Lyotard, which have appeared with Indiana UP, University of Chicago Press, Fordham University Press and Stanford University Press.
