In addition to the Marlowe tales "Heart of Darkness and "Youth, this new volume includes Conrad's classic doppelganger tale "The Secret Sharer and the lesser known "Amy Foster."

Heart of Darkness and Selected Short Fiction | Joseph Conrad, George Stade
Pickpick

The last short story “The Secret Sharer” was so intense it made me nervous. The intimacy was romantic. I didn‘t know what to expect from Joseph Conrad. If you really likes seafaring stories or stories on ships and about ships, Joseph Conrad is for you.
