Joseph Conrad (Critical Lives) by Robert Hampson

Fantastic short critical biography of Joseph Conrad by the eminent scholar Robert Hampson. So cogent, lucid and comprehensive, pleasure to read, engrossing and a guide to any perplexed. Places the author in his global historical as well as personal context. I cannot recommend this highly enough. A superlative achievement!
