A ship's captain intends to help friends reclaim their land but gets distracted by a marooned yacht and the married woman on board. One of Conrad's less familiar tales, this powerfully intense novel provides atmospheric seafaring glimpses of the Malay archipelago and a suspenseful plot that builds to an explosive climax.

About the Author

Joseph Conrad (1857–1924) was fluent from birth in French as well as his native Polish. He learned his third language, English, as an adult, and it was in English that he wrote his evocative stories and novels. Conrad drew upon his experiences in the British and French navies to portray the struggles of humanity amid the world's vast indifference.
