　　Joseph Conrad was born in 1857， in Berdychiv，part of the Polish Ukraine. His real name wasJozef Teodor Konrad Nalecz Korzeniowski.Conrad lived in the Ukraine and Russia as achild and after the death of both of his parents，he was looked after by his uncle in Poland. Froman early age he learnt French， read Shakespeareand became very fond of the Polish romanticpoets， but he also had a passion for the sea. Hisuncle allowed him to go to sea as soon as he had finished school andin 1878， he joined the British Merchant Navy， eventually becoming acaptain. Conrad sailed extensively2 all over the world and in 1890 hewent to the Belgian Congo， which was later his inspiration for Heart ofDarkness （1902）. This journey， however， made Conrad ill and in 1894，he gave up the sea to become a full-time writer， mainly because of hishealth problems. In 1886 Conrad obtained British nationality and when he left the navyhe settled3 in the south of England. In 1895， his first novel - Almayer'sFolly4， an adventure set on the coast of Borneo - was published. In1896 he married Jessie George and they had two sons. He regularlypublished short stories， novels and essays， but was not financiallysuccessful until 1913， when his novel Chance became popular. Conradwas widely recognised as a remarkable5 writer by other writers， andhis novels Lord Jim （1900）， Heart of Darkness （1902）， Nostromo （1904）， TheSecret Agent （1907） and Under Western Eyes （1911） were highly praised.His ability to handle~ English with such style is even more impressive7when one thinks that it was his third language. Conrad died of a heartattack in 1924.
