Edward W. Said; Foreword-Andrew Rubin; Foreword-Jonathan Arac Joseph Conrad and the Fiction of Autobiography
Columbia University Press 2007-12-14 0231140045 / 9780231140041 Hardcover Fine n/a Hardcover
New. Fine in publisher's cloth as issued/no dust jacket. Available in our UK premises for prompt dispatch worldwide.Said concentrates on what we may call Conrad's 'house of consciousness'- how that great mind perceived, what its internal complexities and contradictions were, how it turned the shapeless sufferings of the life into the containing constructs of art." -- The Spectator Review "Critical monographs generally have a brief life. But once in a while a book appears that establishes itself as a lasting presence. Edward W. Said's Joseph Conrad and the Fiction of Autobiography is such a preeminent exception. When it was published in 1966, Said's work was recognized as a significant event in Conrad studies. Rejecting the 'purism' of the then-dominant New Criticism, Said opted for a richer, more holistic way of reading Conrad, relating his correspondence to his short fiction to investigate the way in which the novelist 'ordered the chaos of his existence into a highly patterned art.' Said's Conrad joined the handful of monographs still regularly cited by Conradian scholars. The book also represented a major step on the intellectual path of a writer whose reflections influenced the landscape of late twentieth-century thought. Joseph Conrad and the Fiction of Autobiography is a must for anyone seriously interested in Modernist writing, in Conrad& mdash;the first global novelist& mdash;and in Edward W. Said." -- Tony Tanner, The Spectator
