This penultimate volume of Conrad's collected letters ends soon
after his 65th birthday. Over the previous three years, Conrad
wrote The Rover, struggled with Suspense, translated The Book of
Job (a Polish comedy), collaborated with J. B. Pinker on a
cinematic treatment of 'Gaspar Ruiz', and worked by himself on
adapting The Secret Agent for the London stage. He saw the
publication of The Rescue, Notes on Life and Letters, and the
Doubleday/Heinemann collected edition, most of whose volumes had
new Author's Notes. Especially in North America, the collected
edition strengthened his reputation as the leading English-language
novelist of his day. This recognition could not always console him
for his worries about his health, his family, and the state of
post-war Europe, but he had not lost his sense of irony. These
letters, the majority new to scholarship, abound in striking turns
of phrase and unexpected insights.
