Conrad is regarded as one of the greatest novelists in English, though he did not speak the language fluently until he was in his twenties. He wrote stories and novels, often with a nautical setting, that depict trials of the human spirit in the midst of an indifferent universe. He was a master prose stylist who brought a distinctly non-English tragic sensibility into English literature.Table of Contents:NovelsThe Rover (1923)Suspense: A Napoleonic Novel (1925)Memoirs & LettersA Personal Record; or Some ReminiscencesThe Mirror of the SeaNotes on Life & LettersBiography and Critical EssaysJoseph Conrad (A Biography) by Hugh WalpoleJoseph Conrad, A Personal Remembrance by Ford Madox FordJoseph Conrad by John Albert MacyA Conrad Miscellany by John Albert MacyJoseph Conrad by Virginia Woolf
