ABOUT THE BOOK

Set in the fictional mining town of Sulaco, a port city within the imagined nation of Costaguana, "Nostromo" is widely acknowledged as one of Joseph Conrad's finest works. The narrative revolves around Senõr Gould, an English expatriate who possesses the silver-mining rights in the country. As political unrest intensifies in the nation, Senõr Gould entrusts Nostromo, his reliable chief longshoreman, with the responsibility of concealing his silver to prevent it from falling into the hands of his political adversaries. "Nostromo" stands as a timeless story depicting the influence of wealth, its potential to corrupt, and the resulting upheaval that accompanies it.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Joseph Conrad (1857–1924), born Józef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski, was a Polish-British novelist renowned for his English-language literary mastery. Despite learning English in his twenties, Conrad became a prose stylist, infusing non-English sensibilities into literature. His works, often set in nautical environments, explore human crises amid an indifferent world. Conrad, considered a literary impressionist and early modernist, crafted anti-heroic characters like in "Lord Jim," influencing numerous authors. His narratives, reflecting European-dominated themes like imperialism, drew from his experiences in Polish history and the merchant navies.
