What about Conrad?

• bshimmin 8y ago
  Conrad is another great example (maybe the only other example!), but I think perhaps part of the unusual beauty of his writing is that he does (involuntarily, I guess) occasionally employ irregular constructions because of the Polish and French he learnt before English. Wikipedia has a slightly waffly commentary about this which doesn't really give any good examples: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Conrad#Language https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Conrad#Language
