Romance

John Kemp, a young Englishman thirsting for adventure, journeys to the Caribbean where he meets an influential landowner and becomes entangled in the dangerous world of local pirates.

Romance was the final of three fictional collaborations between authors Joseph Conrad and Ford Madox Ford (writing under the name of F. M. Hueffer). Forged before either author achieved literary fame and fortune, the collaboration between Conrad and Ford resulted in extensive experimentation with style and narration as each author pushed the boundaries of the existing literary forms, and is credited with introducing the unreliable narrator, one of the most important developments in modernist literature.
