literature,
but as a writer who lived a fascinating,
unusually full and adventurous life.
But Conrad s life presents the
biographer with uncommon difficulty
because, whether due to his itinerancy
as a young man, the destruction of
documentary evidence in the turmoil
of the twentieth century, or the
discreetness and relative isolation
Conrad cultivated in his years as a
writer, there are many periods for
which documentation is difficult.
