Аннотация к книге "Secret Agent"

According to the First Secretary, Mr Vladimir, Verloc has done little to earn his money in recent years and it is time for a `dynamic outrage` to provoke the middle classes. So Verloc, accepting his duty, plants a bomb at the Greenwich Observatory. But when the blast has done its work, Verloc finds he has destroyed a great deal more than the complacency of the bourgeoisie. "The Secret Agent" is arguably one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century. Its brilliant depiction of a terrorist underworld, its ruthless irony and its black satire on a morally corrupt society is the culmination of many influences on Conrad, including that of Dickens and of Dostoyevsky. Формат: 11 см х 18 см.
