Publisher Description: Conrad set his novel in the mining town of Sulaco, an imaginary port in the occidental region of the imaginary country of Costaguana. Costaguana has a long history of tyranny, revolution and warfare, but has recently experienced a period of stability under the dictator Ribiera. The book has more fully developed characters than any other of his novels, but two characters dominate the narrative: Se or Gould and the eponymous anti-hero, the "incorruptible" Nostromo. |
