The Secret Agent

Average rating
4 out of 5
Based on 5,749 Ratings and 524 Reviews

Book Description
For the members of an anarchist cell, it is the ultimate terrorist act: to blow up the Greenwich Observatory, the international symbol of time. Conrad's 1907 novel turns a darkly satiric eye upon the shadowy corners of London's radical underworld. This grim send-up of English society is arguably Conrad's most popular full-length work, and certainly his most venomous. 2 cassettes.
