Description for Conrad's Charlie Marlow Paperback. This study approaches Marlow not simply as a literary device but as one of the greatest character creations in literature, an understanding of whose inner conflicts newly illuminates the structure of his narrations, his interactions with his auditors, and the thematic ambiguity of his tales. Num Pages: 184 pages, biography. BIC Classification: DSBH. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 216 x 140 x 10. Weight in Grams: 246.
This study argues that Conrad portrays Marlow and his relationships with a psychological depth that is unsurpassed in literature. In Youth , Heart of Darkness and Lord Jim , he is a continuously-evolving character whose thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are expressions of his personality and experience.
