Joseph Conrad: Times Remembered（ISBN=9780521071284） txt umd azw3 下载 fb2 pdf 在线 免费

Though others have published reminiscences of Joseph Conrad,

these accounts have frequently contained inaccuracies, sometimes

even simple fabrications. It is partly in an attempt to set the

record straight that John Conrad, the novelist's only surviving

son, has committed these memoirs to print. Mr Conrad has not tried

to import into the book the biographical interpretations or

speculations of others, but rather to recall and set down as

honestly and directly as possible what he remembers from around

1909 to the point of his father's death in 1924. Through his vivid

and detailed account of the day-to-day existence in the various

houses the family inhabited during this period, Mr Conrad is able

both to throw light on many aspects of his father's life and to

invoke the sense of an era of English social life which has now

disappeared. His memoirs are informal, often anecdotal, recording

what amused, irritated or moved his father.
