"A remarkable book, the story of Flora De Barral, daughter of the Great De Barral, a monumental swindler, and her love for the sea captain who married her. Marlow tells the story in his usual quiet manner which is so dramatic under the quiet, and shows Chance the master hand directing and interfering at any moment."@en . "Náhoda : vyprávění ve dvou částech" . . "Well, you do have Marlow again. The narrator of \"Jim\" and \"Darkness\" is back here telling another story about people he doesn't actually know first-hand. This time the central character is young Flora de Barral, set adrift in England by her father's scandal-plagued financiering. Haunted and helpless, her wide blue eyes giving her the look of \"a forsaken elf,\" Flora takes what comes in life, seemingly unable to function for herself. Can she find her own way? Will she become ruthless if she tries? Marlow's narration is a marvel of storytelling economy, carrying you across windswept moors and the high seas, not to mention a source of much dry wit as the rather mysterious misogynist fires many shots across the bow of womankind. Is Flora exhibit A in this case against? Certainly she winds the helplessly infatuated Captain Anthony around her finger, despite her apparent total lack of reciprocal devotion. Flora does love, only it is in a flawed way, for her crabbed, corrupt father who believes the two of them too good for the rest of the world. Yet love can be a form of redemption despite itself."@en . . . . . "Romance" . . "Los : opowieść w dwóch częściach"@pl . . "Los : opowieść w dwóch częściach" . . . . . "Chance Vol. 1/2" . .

The revised edition features a new text (the English first edition), revised notes."@en . . "When Flora de Barral's father is imprisoned, she finds herself alone and without resources. Reliant on the generosity of others, Flora navigates with sensitivity her benefactors' intrigues before finding safety and security with Captain Anthony. Narrated by Conrad's most popular character, Charles Marlow, Chance is remarkable for its sensitive portrayal of a female protagonist and for its depiction of the social issues of the period, including women's suffrage and high-stakes financial speculation. Originally published serially, Chance was Conrad's first commercially successful novel, and brought both fame and critical attention to his collected works.
