Sobre IBD

Con 55 años, Joseph Conrad recibió la propuesta de escribir sus memorias para la English Review. El resultado fue un texto breve, estructurado sin orden cronológico, con una idea muy particular del género autobiográfico. Sin ánimo confesional, sin ninguna comezón por justificar mi existencia, Crónica personal es una hermosa colección de recuerdos elaborada con la complejidad y el elevado criterio del arte novelístico conradiano, y dedicada especialmente a los acontecimientos e impresiones que se produjeron en el umbral de lo que él llamó sus dos vidas: la vida del mar en la que pasó veinte años y la vida de las letras a la que se consagró hasta su muerte.
