Indian Companion to Joseph Conrad - Hardcover

Joseph Conrad is one of the best 20th century English writers. He is a great sea novelist and short story writer. Conrad is a different and difficult writer altogether. He wrote entirely different kind of fiction imperialist, modernist and partly political. Mallikarjun Patil's critical monograph on Conrad is like an Indian writers revisiting of Conrad. The book has four chapters: Chapter 1 is about Conrad's life and works; Chapter 2 deals with a critical analysis of Conrad's entire corps of novels; Chapter 3 analyses Conrad's short stories; and Chapter 4 is about Conrad's world-view. Patil's monograph on Conrad is primarily meant for Indian readers. It aims at introducing Conrad to them for a better and easier appreciation of Conrad; the Pole, the Captain, the English writer and the thinker.
