This specially commissioned selection of Conrad’s matchless short stories includes such favourites as Youth, a modern epic of the sea; The Secret Sharer, a thrilling psychological drama; An Outpost of Progress a blackly comic prelude to Heart of Darkness; Amy Foster, a moving story of a shipwrecked, alienated Pole; and The Lagoon and Karain, two exotic, exciting Malay tales. Il Conde and The Tale are subtle portrayals of bewildered outrage; An Anarchist and The Informer are sardonic depictions of revolutionaries and Prince Roman is a tale of magnificent, doomed heroism set in Conrad’s native Poland during the new to Conrad’s work and those familiar with his novels will delight in this wide-ranging collection.
