{"product_id":"the-several-lives-of-joseph-john-stape-9781400095865","title":"The Several Lives of Joseph Conrad","description":"In this authoritative, insightful biography, we see the modernist master Joseph Conrad as a man who consistently reinvented himself. Born in 1857 in the Ukraine, he left home early and worked as a sailor, traveling to the Far East and Africa, and eventually settled in England, beginning a precarious existence as a novelist. John Stape describes a man with a deep sense of otherness, a writer who wrote in his third language and whose fiction became the cornerstone of modernism. With his exceptional understanding of Conrad, Stape succeeds in casting a new light on the life of a man who remains one of the greatest writers of his, and our, time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Stape\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1400095867\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781400095865\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.26w x 0.85d","brand":"John Stape","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44080055484671,"sku":"9781400095865","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_11e1697d-917b-4f87-9295-001a2be1eb9a.jpg?v=1685484692","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-several-lives-of-joseph-john-stape-9781400095865","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
