Publisher Description: "Youth is insolent; it is its right - its necessity; it has got to assert itself, and all assertion in this world of doubts is a defiance, is an insolence..." A tragedy at sea leaves young sailor Jim with a reputation in ruins and little chance of continuing his career. Jim tries to live quietly but his past frequently returns to haunt him and deny him peace. Jim's travels take him in search of peace and of redemption... One of Joseph Conrad's finest works, Lord Jim is now regarded as one of the most important literary works of the Twentieth Century. |
