Sinopse´no consideration, no delicacy, no tenderness, no scruples should stand in the way of a woman ... from taking the shortest cut towards securing for herself the easiest possible existence´ Chance(1914) was the first of Conrad´s novels to bring him popular success and it holds a unique place among his works. It tells the story of Flora de Barral, a vulnerable and abandoned young girl who is ´like a beggar,without a right to anything but compassion´. After her bankrupt father is imprisoned, she learns the harsh fact that a woman in her position ´has no resources but in herself. Her only means of action is to be what she is.´ Flora´s long struggle to achieve some dignity and happiness makes her Conrad´s most moving female character. Reflecting the contemporary interest in the New Woman and the Suffragette question, Chance also marks the final appearance of Marlow, Conrad´s most effective and wise narrator. This revised edition uses the English first edition text and has a new chronology and bibliography.
