Joseph Conrad's short novel The Shadow-Line: A Confession (1917) is
one of the key works of early twentieth-century fiction. This
edition, established through modern textual scholarship, and
published as part of the Cambridge Edition of the Works of Joseph
Conrad, presents Conrad's only major work written during the First
World War and its 1920 preface in forms more authoritative than any
so far printed. Correspondence reveals that the part- and
chapter-divisions present in the historical editions lack authorial
sanction, and this edition of The Shadow-Line offers a continuous
text for the first time, restoring to the narrative a fluency and
dramatic intensity not hitherto found in any printing. An
Introduction and Explanatory Notes, as well as maps and
illustrations, enrich this volume. The Appendices publish materials
relevant to Conrad's maritime career and to the publishing of the
American serial, and the Apparatus allows the reader to follow the
creative process.
