Summary

Conrad's Drama: Contemporary Reviews and Observations' collects both book reviews and performance reviews of Conrad's three plays: 'The Secret Agent', 'One Day More', and 'Laughing Anne'. These reviews and observations show how Conrad's plays were received by his contemporaries. More than this, however, 'Conrad's Drama' reveals the larger conversations surrounding his plays: the state of British drama in the early 20th century, the role the drama critic has in a play's reception, and the difficulty most fiction writers experience in trying to write for the stage. No other reference work exists for those studying Conrad's plays, and this volume should prove to be an indispensable reference work for those working on this topic.
