Negative Positive
Title: great plot, extremely confusing
Review: Lord Jim had all the key elements for an extremely interesting story, love/ murder/ adventure, but quickly loses the reader with the confusing writing style. It is hard to know who is talking and Jim's personality or looks are only discussed in the first two senetences of the story. I believe that if Conrad had lightened his style a little bit it could have been a much better novel.
