Excited to share Conrad and World Literature, a special issue of The Conradian I co-edited with Christopher GoGwilt. It explores Conrad’s work in a global context, with fresh perspectives on space, time, and literary connections. #JosephConrad #WorldLiterature

My one constructive criticism on BlueSky, as a community: we need to “like” less and “retweet” more. In the absence of an algorithm, that’s the way we find each other and reward good content.
