Joseph Conrad was a Polish novelist who wrote in English, and later became a naturalized British citizen. He didn't learn to speak English until he was in his twenties, and didn't begin his writing career until he was in his forties -- yet "many critics regard him as one of the greatest novelists in the English language."
