“Glazzard examines themes such as espionage, diplomacy, investigation, and terrorism in Conrad’s work, tracing them back to popular contemporary texts … . A substantial work using an innovative approach, Conrad’s Popular Fictions could potentially serve as a reference point for future research on some of Conrad’s less frequently discussed writings. It is also recommended for those who are interested in turn-of-the-century English literature, culture,and the period’s sociological background.” (József Szabolcs Fagyal, Hungarian Journal of English and American Studies, Vol. 24 (1), 2018)
