Join us to celebrate the launch of Martin Edmond's Marlow's Dream: Joseph Conrad in Antipodean Ports.
In the late 19th century, Joseph Conrad (1857-1924) made half a dozen visits to Australia whilst working as a merchant seafarer, stopping at numerous other ports along the way. In Marlow’s Dream, Martin Edmond shows in vivid detail how, during those voyages, Conrad both collected and began to arrange the tales that would later appear in his fiction.
