Youth
Blackwood, 1902.
First edition, first state with adverts dated 10/02. Original green cloth titled in gilt and black. A very good copy indeed, with slight toning to the spine and minor wear to spine ends.
Three lengthened stories or novellas including one of Conrad's most regarded works, "Heart of Darkness" from which T.S. Eliot took the epigraph "Mistah Kurtz. He dead" for his "Hollow Men". Described by Connolly in his Modern Movement as "a masterpiece of sinister deterioration seen by the narrator who is himself profoundly altered by it."
