The Secret Agent.
London: Methuen & Co., 1907 Stock Code: 81060
First edition, first impression, first issue with the 40 pages of inserted ads at the rear. One of Conrad's very best works - a stunning novel of detection, espionage and revolution. "The Secret Agent depicts the atmosphere of Edwardian London in a psychological thriller of the anarchist underworld. Conrad's wit and chivalrous magnanimity are at their airiest in this novel." (Connolly)
