Dawn Fulton works on literature in French and English from the Caribbean, West Africa, North Africa and metropolitan France. She has published a book on the novels of Guadeloupean writer Maryse Condé, Signs of Dissent: Maryse Condé and Postcolonial Criticism (University of Virginia Press, 2008), and articles on literature of the Francophone Caribbean in such journals as Callaloo, Romanic Review, Studies in Twentieth- and Twenty-First Century Literature and French Forum. She is currently working on a project on urban space in Francophone literature of migration.

In the comparative literature program, Fulton teaches courses on gender and madness in literature of Africa and the Caribbean and on the politics of bilingualism in postcolonial novels from Africa and the Americas.
