Joseph Conrad and H. G. Wells : the fin-de-siècle literary scene / Linda Dryden, Professor of English, Edinburgh Napier University, UK.

• "Joseph Conrad and H.G. Wells: The Fin de Siècle Literary Scene is the first sustained examination of the literary friendship between Conrad and Wells. Drawing upon biographies, letters, archival material and a close analysis of texts, the book traces the relationship between Conrad and Wells at the close of the nineteenth and the dawn of the twentieth centuries. It offers perspectives on both authors from literary figures like Ford Madox Ford and provides a unique analysis of the temperamental and artistic differences that ultimately caused Conrad and Wells to become estranged. At the same time, Joseph Conrad and H. G. Wells uses critical insights into the works of both authors to trace the ways in which the authors influenced each other's work. What emerges is a clear picture of the literary scene at the fin-de-siècle and consideration of how the English novel was evolving in the opening years of the twentieth century"--
