Críticas:
'[An] imaginatively conceived anthology... Conrad s work was firmly embodied in twentieth-century culture, as much for being the basis for Apocalypse Now as for its impact on readers, and Conradology should be praised for bringing it into the literature, and politics, of the twenty-first century.' --Bookmunch
'[A]n excellent collection, well edited... a vital companion to Conrad for his many fans.' --Storgy
'[A] superb and timely collection of short stories and non-fiction essays... The sheer diversity and brevity of narratives selected by the editors ensures the readers satisfaction. Part of the joy of reading this short story and non-fiction collection is discovering the connection to Conrad s work; although in some cases it is not always straightforward. Nevertheless, this collection signals the timelessness of Conrad s work. Despite the strong criticism surrounding some of his novels and short stories, the response of the authors in this book shows Conrad s work can still inspire and challenge.' --A.M. Bakalar, Glasgow Review of Books
Reseña del editor:
Polish-British Joseph Conrad is regarded as one of the greatest novelists to write in the English language. To celebrate his name, as well as his vision, this anthology brings together specially commissioned short stories and essays, written in English or Polish (the latter being translated into English), which celebrate, respond to and critique the literary legacy of Joseph Conrad. Including 16 of Britain and Poland’s most revered fiction writers and critics, this collection will demonstrate Conrad’s enduring relevance in both countries, bringing together the themes that shaped his own life and work—the sea, colonialism, war, travel—in conceptual essays, near futuristic tales, and new journeys through the heart of darkness.
