"In THE SECRET AGENT Conrad describes seedy London neighborhoods; a cell of refugees and immigrants who plot a revolution behind a dingy storefront; a fanatical expert in explosives who rides the bus clutching his detonator and threatening to blow himself up; an explosion that terrifies the public and makes quite ordinary people seem sinister and menacing; an English wife who knows nothing about her husband’s activities and a shocking event that reveals the truth behind the plot; a secret agent in the pay of the Russian government that tries to create social and political chaos; policemen who have all the terrorists under surveillance yet are taken by surprise.  All these elements, eerily familiar to readers of this novel, sound like recent events in Europe and America."
-From the Introduction by Jeffrey Meyers
