Józef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski..................

"I finished reading the book though, full of admiration for both Conrad and myself:  him for his moral scope, me for my endurance.


-Clive James, as excerpted from his musings on Lord Jim in Latest Readings. 


Perhaps I was too young, but I was never able to finish Conrad, nor get much out of it.  The queue is now too far out-of-hand for the task even to be considered.
