About this listen

 Dive into the life and works of Joseph Conrad, a Polish-British writer who, despite not speaking English fluently until his twenties, came to be considered one of the greatest novelists in the English language. Known for his masterful prose and unique perspective, Conrads stories often portrayed the human spirits struggles against a seemingly indifferent universe. His tales, many set at sea, were inspired by his own seafaring experiences. This memoir, penned by Conrads collaborator and friend Ford Madox Ford, provides intimate insights into Conrads life and works. Ford, himself a significant figure in early 20th-century English literature, quotes extensively from Conrads works. In the audio version, the lines between Fords musings and Conrads words blur seamlessly, creating an immersive listening experience.Copyright Biographies and Memoirs Art Literary History & Criticism Social Sciences
