Biographie de l'auteur
Joseph Conrad was a Polish novelist who lived most of his life in Britain and didn't learn English until age 21. The young Conrad lived an adventurous life involving gunrunning and political conspiracy, and apparently had a disastrous love affair that plunged him into despair. He served 16 years in the merchant navy.In 1894, at age 36, Conrad reluctantly gave up the sea, partly because of poor health and partly because he had decided on a literary career.
Présentation de l'éditeur
In Conrad's Chance (1913), Marlow again narrate the story as an observer. The story's unusual female protagonist is the most complex of Conrad's heroines, Flora de Barral, a damsel distressed by the neglect of her bankrupt father and rejection from her governess. Tragedy and transformation ensue when she takes refuge at sea on Captain Anthony's ship. Chance is a psychologically penetrating portrait of her transformation from vulnerability to self-respect.
