| book description |

Joseph Conrad and the Narration of Silence investigates how Conrad's narrators speak without speaking, focusing first on what is unsayable and then on what is unsaid. Silences (both literal and metaphorical) occur throughout Conrad's writings, and all connect in a meaningful manner to the speech of Conrad's narrators. Readers have frequently commended Conrad's distinct narrative style. These commentaries on narrative have made many valuable contributions. However, this book considers what happens when Conrad's narrators do not narrate when they are instead silent. In these gaps between what is said and what is unsaid, meaning may emerge. In short, the absence of speaking brings about meaningful moments of narrative memory when one discovers what cannot be contained within the narrator's narrative alone: An incremental progression toward questions concerning the nature of knowledge, the nature of human existence, and the nature of the universe.
