Summary

"The Project Gutenberg Works of Joseph Conrad: An Index" by Joseph Conrad is a guide to the author’s writings, created around the beginning of the 1900s. It acts as a map for readers through Joseph Conrad's collection of books, short stories, and essays. The writing probably examines ideas like what it means to be human, colonialism, and the hard parts of right and wrong as they show up in Conrad's stories. The index points out important titles from Joseph Conrad, like "Heart of Darkness," "Lord Jim," and "Nostromo," and each part quickly explains the important ideas and stories in these texts, showing how well Conrad could tell stories and capture what it means to be human. This collection helps new and old readers find their way through Conrad’s writing, and points out how important he was to modern writing, helping people understand his books and the ideas that connect them.

About the Author

Joseph Conrad was a Polish-British novelist and story writer. He is regarded as one of the greatest writers in the English language and although he did not speak English fluently until his twenties, he became a master prose stylist who brought a non-English sensibility into English literature. He wrote novels and stories, many in nautical settings that depict crises of human individuality in the midst of what he saw as an indifferent, inscrutable and amoral world.
