"The Rover" was serialised in the "Pictorial Review" Sept to Dec, 1923, prior to book publication. Conrad began the novel as a short story hoping it would give him some brief relief from his struggles with
"suspense". It was a popular success despite some critics regarding it as marred by sentimentality.
