Though Joseph Conrad's works are notorious for an absence of female characters, this book demonstrates that he often represented women and femininity in less explicit ways. Lissa Schneider examines many of Conrad's best-known works to show that his oppositional narrative strategies and use of female allegorical imagery challenged late Victorian notions, norms, and goals. This examination of Conrad's best-known works demonstrates how they negotiate the "shadow-line" of Victorian gender, race and class paradigms to clear a space for a modern revisioning of difference.
