This is the first major study to bring together for examination all of Conrad's Malay fiction: the early novels, Almayer's Folly , An Outcast of the Islands , and Lord Jim ; the two later novels, Victory and The Rescue ; and various short stories, such as The Lagoon and Karain . The volume focuses on cross-cultural encounters, cultural identity and cultural dislocation, paying particular attention to issues of race and gender. He also situates Conrad's fiction in relation to earlier English accounts of South-East Asia.

Review:
'Hampson's analysis of Conrad's five novels and two short stories set in the nineteenth-century Malay world is of an intimidatingly wide scope and impressive depth...[A] highly erudite and original literary critique for advanced students of Conrad's oeuvre, cultural studies, and English Literature.' - Carool Kersten
