Chance. Joseph Conrad. Doubleday Anchor Books, NY, 1957 (first published 1913). Original dust jacket and typography by Edward Gorey.Breaking away from the tradition, Chance dealt with social issues surrounding feminism and financial speculation enacted by Mrs. Fyne and Flora de Barral, as presented by the narrators. The storyline of the novel oscillates between human-will and activity juxtaposed with an apathetic force that can nullify the importance of human action. -- source link
