Joseph Conrad
304 cryptograms in the catalog, every one taken from Joseph Conrad’s own writing rather than from a quotation list.
Lord Jim and Heart of Darkness. Conrad's narrators are usually recounting secondhand events with less-than-perfect confidence, so his quotes tend to be about how hard a thing is to say, rather than the thing itself.

How hard they are
