Author Information

Bio of Joseph Conrad

Joseph Conrad (1857-1924) led an itinerant life until the mid-1890s, first in exile in Russia with his family, and then as a seaman. During the course of his maritime career, he worked as a gunrunner, tried to commit suicide by shooting himself in the chest, and sailed throughout Asia and on the Congo River. Subsequently, he used these experiences in many of his stories. Ending his career in 1894, he married Jessie George in 1896 and retired to Kent.
