Descrizione

20 volumes. The scarce and handsome Autograph Edition SIGNED AND NUMBERED BY JOSEPH CONRAD. Tall 8vo, in the publisher's original tan buckram cloth, over brown paper covered boards, the spines lettered in black, the upper covers with autograph of Conrad in black. A very good and handsome set, some mellowing to the spine panels and other light evidence of age, a few spots here or there, still a pleasing and handsome set.

Edizione: a pleasing, autographed set of conrad's works. the tasteful presentation is fitting to this master prose stylist who brought a non-english sensibility into english literature. his stories and novels, many with nautical settings, depict the trials of the human spirit in the midst of an impassive, inscrutable universe. his narrative style and anti-heroic characters have influenced many authors, including f. scott fitzgerald, william faulkner, ernest hemingway, andré malraux, george orwell, graham greene, gabriel garcía márquez, john le carré, v. s. naipaul, philip roth, j. m. coetzee, and salman rushdie.
