About The Shadow Line

Joseph Conrad's The Shadow Line (1917) is his most autobiographical novella — drawn directly from his experience commanding his first ship through the becalmed Gulf of Thailand during a fever epidemic. One of the most concentrated explorations in English literature of the threshold between youth and maturity. Conrad dedicated it to his son and to all those 'who like himself have crossed in early youth the shadow-line of their generation.'
