The Secret Agent
The Secret Agent
Paperback - English

Though he is best remembered for his novel Heart of Darkness, Joseph Conrad widened his scope in later life to include espionage, such as he does in his 1907 novel The Secret Agent. Over 100 years later this work is lauded for its visionary take on terrorism and the rise of spy networks. Though the book was not very popular in its time, critics nonetheless lauded Conrad for his effort, with many dubbing it one of his very best works. Its themes of civil disconnect and anarchism are still resonate today; the Unabomber, Ted Koczynsky is said to have identified strongly with The Professor.

Conrad's literary works often featured a nautical setting, reflecting the influences of his early career in the Merchant Navy, and his depictions of the struggles of the human spirit in a cold, indifferent world are best exemplified in such seminal works as Heart of Darkness, Lord JimM, The Secret Agent, Nostromo, and Typhoon. Regarded as a forerunner of modernist literature, Conrad's writing style and characters have influence
