Joseph Conrad
Joseph Conrad is a Polish-English writer considered to be one of the greatest English-language novelists. Although he was only fluent in English at the age of twenty, he became a master prose stylist who introduced a non-English perception into English literature. Conrad has written stories and novels, most of them in a maritime setting, describing the challenges of the human mind in the midst of what he sees as an inexplicable and barren universe. Conrad is considered one of the first modernists, although his writings contain elements of 19th century realism, as in Lord Jim he influenced many writers. Many dramatic films have been adapted or inspired from his works. Many writers and critics have observed that Conrad's fictions, written largely in the first two decades of the 20th century, seem to predict future world events.
