Reviews
'There are punctilious descriptions of parts of the narrative, especially the unique provenance of single sheets (including descriptions of the handwritings on several separate sheets). This extraordinary exhaustiveness, while not unusual in the Conrad industry, distinguishes this Edition of Under Western Eyes and assures us that extreme care has been being devoted to details of this challenging artifact ... this Edition of Under Western Eyes is a triumph of the textual editor's heart.' Dale Kramer, Joseph Conrad Today
