The Secret Agent by JOSEPH CONRAD, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

At first, Joseph Conrad did not dare to call this book a novel. He traveled to Montpellier in February 1906 with his small family, telling himself that he was composing a short story, entitled 'Verloc', the name of the central character. As always, he wrote slowly, in a stubborn mood of exasperation an uncertainty, laboring in a foreign language. | The Secret Agent by JOSEPH CONRAD, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
