Overview

Un joven adopta una decisión insensata y abandona el cómodo puesto de segundo en un barco mercante que presta servicio en la zona de Oceanía. Deja atrás un trabajo estable y el reconocimiento de sus superiores en el mando. Mientras descansa en el "Hogar de Oficiales" en la Región de los Estrechos, en la península de Malasia, recibe la inesperada oferta de capitanear un barco por el fallecimiento en Bangkok del capitán que lo gobernaba. Una propuesta tentadora e irrechazable para un hombre de su juventud e inquietudes, con un temperamento ávido de asumir responsabilidades.

About the Author

About The Author
Best known for his novella Heart of Darkness, Joseph Conrad (1857–1924) was a Polish–British author. Although not a native English speaker, Conrad came to be regarded as one of the greatest novelists to write in the English language. He revolutionized the English novel with books such as The Secret Agent, Nostromo, and Typhoon. Before publishing his first novel, Almayer's Folly, in 1895, Joseph Conrad spent almost 20 years working mostly at sea as a merchant sailor.
