    fiction. ‘The Secret Agent’ may break this assumption. Significantly, Conrad self-declares the novel ‘Winnie Verloc’s story’ , thrusting a ‘female, working-class protagonist’ into the androcentric spheres of both Victorian London and literature. Considering this, I intend to evaluate Conrad’s claim this is ‘Winnie Verloc’s story,’ analysing her presentation in perhaps the most essential part of the novel – the pages preceding Verloc’s death. These pages signify a fundamental shift…

    surface realities. O-hisa, symbolising an idealised, artifactual femininity linked to an authentic Japanese identity, grows less credible as Tanizaki portrays O-hisa resenting tradition’s yoke. In one sense, O-hisa becomes a puppet, embodying a sentimental past and the rejuvenation of lost origins and identity, yet in another, could be regarded as a false prophet for the genus of identity Kaname…
