Produktbeschreibung

Joseph Conrad (1857-1924) is an outstanding English novelist whose literary destiny is truly unique. A Pole by birth, he mastered English only in adulthood, but managed to become a classic of British literature. His work combines neo-romanticism and deep psychological insight, rethinking the adventure genre and leaving a powerful mark on the literature of the 20th century. Among the writers inspired by Conrad are Ernest Hemingway, William Faulkner, Graham Greene, Konstantin Paustovsky. This edition presents one of his most significant novels - "Lord Jim" (translated as "Jump Overboard"). The main character, Jim, has dreamed of sea voyages since childhood and, having become a navigator, sets off on a voyage. However, his fate is decided by a tragic incident: the ship is wrecked, and he is the only one who appears before the court, while the rest of the crew simply disappear. Faced with cowardice, betrayal and injustice, Jim goes to Malaya, trying to find a new life and atone for his guilt. But even far from the past, fate throws him new challenges, and its smile gradually turns into a bitter mockery... Full of drama, philosophical reflections and exciting adventures, this novel is a study of human nature, honor and the power of fate, which made Conrad an immortal master of world literature.
