Conrad's narratives of difference : not exactly tales for boys

Conrad's narratives of difference : not exactly tales for boys / by Lissa Schneider.

Arguing that gender and difference are conceptual and performative, Schneider examines many of Conrad's best known fictions to show how his use of female allegorical imagery, oppositional narrative strategies and hybrid generic structures challenge late Victorian ideologic norms and goals.
