Though others have published reminiscences of Joseph Conrad, these
accounts have frequently contained inaccuracies, sometimes even
simple fabrications. It is partly in an attempt to set the record
straight that John Conrad, the novelist's only surviving son, has
committed these memoirs to print. Mr Conrad has not tried to import
into the book the biographical interpretations or speculations of
others, but rather to recall and set down as honestly and directly
as possible what he remembers from around 1909 to the point of his
father's death in 1924. Through his vivid and detailed account of
the day-to-day existence in the various houses the family inhabited
during this period, Mr Conrad is able both to throw light on many
aspects of his father's life and to invoke the sense of an era of
English social life which has now disappeared. His memoirs are
informal, often anecdotal, recording what amused, irritated or
moved his father.
