Context:

Referenced multiple times as Conrad's 'great biographer.' Cited for details about Conrad's childhood dream of visiting Africa, his traumatic Congo journey, the oppressive atmosphere that inspired Heart of Darkness, and the analysis that Kurtz's model comes from literary and philosophical tradition as much as real-life figures. Described as 'quite hard to get hold of.'
