    No full text
    Peter Jaeger’s The Shadow Line literally and figuratively shadows Joseph Conrad’s 1917 novella The Shadow Line by reading the original and re-writing its non-identical twin. Peter Jaeger has produced poetry, criticism, hybrid creative-critical research, and artists’ books. His most recent publications are John Cage and Buddhist Ecopoetics and A Field Guide to Lost Things. He is Professor of Poetics at Roehampton University. Robert Hampson is Chair of the UK Joseph Conrad Society, the author of three monographs on Conrad, including Conrad’s Secrets, and the editor of a number of Conrad’s works. He has written several books of poetry and is Director of the MA in Creative Writing at Royal Holloway. MA BIBLIOTHÈQUE was established by artist and writer Sharon Kivland in 2013. The publications are modestly yet attractively produced, usually printed in small editions, and include the seriesThe Good Reader, to which Kivland invites others to reflect on reading (forthcoming are works by Vanessa Place, Kate Briggs, Sarah Wood, and Annabel Frearson).
