Literary Impressionism Leaves Something to be Desired...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Lord Jim (Classics Illustrated) (Paperback)
Conrad's mundane tale of the human condition is an example of literary impressionism at it's most infuriating peak. The author consciously avoids the statement of fact, only hinting at events that transpire. It requires a great deal of focus to read and leaves one feeling unsatisfied, as nothing is told, outright, to the reader. It's also a very difficult book to be tested on; the "tale within a tale" format makes it tough to comprehend who is actually narrating.
