Now the subject of a major film, The Secret Agent is based on an actual attempt made in 1894 to blow up the Greenwich Observatory. A labyrinth of greed, corruption and betrayal, it is the most darkly humorous of all Conrad's novels.
This is Conrad proving that he is undoubtedly one of the greatest writers of all time, and an equally impressive storyteller. The tight construction of the narrative and the intense descriptions of the character's mental states makes for an awe inspiring piece of fiction. It's the kind of book that makes you feel priviliged to be able to read.
