Joseph Conradin "Nostromo" tarjoaa pysäyttävän kuvauksen rahan vallasta, ahneudesta ja kapinasta kuvitteellisen Etelä-Amerikan tasavallan vuoristomaisemissa.
A gripping tale of capitalist exploitation and rebellion, set amid the mist-shrouded mountains of a fictional South American republic, Conrad's novel portrays in shocking detail the corrupting influence of money, the devious effects of greed, and the lure of silver and its power over men—destroying some and revealing the strengths of others.
When the great San Tomé silver mine is threatened by rebel forces, Nostromo, a popular hero, steps forward with a strategy; but a disaster at sea, a brutal drowning, and ill-considered actions by the hero irrevocably change the course of events.
Conrad's deep moral consciousness and masterful narrative technique are at their best in this riveting drama that paints perceptive portraits of heroes, anti-heroes, the avaricious, and the foolish. First published in 1904, Nostromo is widely considered one of the author's greatest works.
Unabridged Dover (2002) republication of a standard edition. xiv+346pp. 5½ x 8¼. Paperbound.
