Literary Output
In spite of Conrads ultimatum that there should be no children, two sons were born,
Borys in 1898, and John in 1906. During this period his literary output included The
Nigger of the Narcissus, Lord Jim, Typhoon, and Nostromo. However, these works did not
receive the critical acclaim to which they were entitled. Conrads health began to
deteriorate during the writing of Nostromo and then, in January 1904, Jessie injured her
knees in a fall and was to remain a semi-cripple for the rest of her life.
