Joseph Conrad (1857-1924)

Biographical note

Polish-born writer of English fiction.

His literary work bridges the gap between the classical literary tradition of writers such as Charles Dickens and Fyodor Dostoevsky and the emergent modernist schools of writing. Conrad is now best known for the novella, Heart of Darkness.
