No Customer Reviews
Charles Marlow is a recurring character in the work of Polish-born English novelist Joseph Conrad. Marlow is an alter ego of Conrad; both are sailors for the British Empire during the late-19th and early-20th century during the height of British imperialism.Marlow narrates several of Conrad's best-known works. The character Marlow narrates Conrad's novels Heart of Darkness, Lord Jim, Chance , The Arrow of Gold and his short story "Youth". The stories are not told entirely from Marlow's perspective however. There is also an omniscient narrator who introduces Marlow and some of the other characters. Then, once introduced, Marlow proceeds to tell the actual tale, creating a story-within-a-story effect.This book collects the four Marlow books into one book.This book is annotated with a biography about the life and times of Joseph Conrad.
