it comes to Conrad's novels, several of which, like Nostromo and The Rescue, are immeasurably illuminated by Mallios's treatment of them. I haven't even begun to describe the powerful readings of the African American writers in the book nor the wealth of insight they provide into Chinua Achebe's famous condemnation, which as Mallios reminds us was very much, though not only, an intervention on Achebe's part into a clearly American construction of Conrad. When so many academic monographs give the impression of stretching one or two ideas quite thin, Mallios's book, at 468 pages, seems barely able to contain the wealth of resources and insights he brings to bear on the subject, as if he has forgotten more about Conrad in America than we will ever hope to know. Our Conrad is indispensible reading for any scholar of Conrad, modernism, or American studies. It is one of the finest books on Conrad that I have read. aDam BaRRowS u Carleton University Ulrika Maude and Matthew Feldman, eds., Beckett and Phenomenology London and New York: Continuum, 2009, 212 pp. Since his rise to prominence in the 1960s, Beckett has consistently been read as a peculiarly "philosophical" writer.
