Críticas:

'Restoring 'Heart of Darkness' to the more traditional context of Conrad's works as a whole ... the Cambridge Edition becomes controversial since it now offers us a version of 'Heart of Darkness' that readers have never before encountered.' John Lyon, University of Bristol

Review of the series: 'The Cambridge Edition of the Works of Joseph Conrad aims to be definitive, and [the books] have both scholarly and physical weight ... The explanatory notes are compendious and thoughtfully arranged ... invaluable to scholars of Conrad, modernist literary composition and late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century literary practices and processes ... These elegant and comprehensive volumes are a must for university libraries ... [the series] is without question a definitive piece of scholarship.' Andrew Frayn, Variants: The Journal of the European Society for Textual Scholarship
