A book worth waiting for

 

 

There's nothing written by Joseph Conrad which I haven't read, and I also try to keep up with everything that's written about him. Martin Edmond has just now published "Marlow’s Dream - Joseph Conrad in Antipodean ports" which he talks about in yesterday's episode of Phillip Adams' Late Night Live.

It's a book worth waiting for, but I may only find it in a Sydney bookshop when we go there next month, as there wouldn't be too many Joseph Conrad readers in the Bay. In the meantime, I'll watch a couple of his short stories made into short films:

 


An Outpost of Progress


The Secret Sharer
