Hello /lit/

I have to write an essay, which, due a series of precarious circumstances, will be on Joseph Conrad and how he was a precursor for modernism.

Unfortunately, I have never read Conrad, so I don't know which of his works is best suited for such an essay.

So, which of Conrad's work best fits the essay title: "How does Conrad's ___________ foreshadow modernism?"

Thanks /lit/.

Go onto JSTOR

Look up Kenneth Graham’s essay on ‘Conrad and Modernism'

then read Heart of Darkness

I don't have access, but I can probably get it. In the meantime, I take it that you recommend Heart of Darkness.

Ta-da!

How do you not have access to JSTOR? Do you go to Bob Jones or Brigham Young?

KNOWLEDGE IS EVIL.

No, neither of those places. But I do live in the UK. Does that count?
