Overview

Novela de madurez escrita por un Joseph Conrad (1857-1924) plenamente dueño de sus recursos narrativos y conocedor de la naturaleza humana, La línea de sombra (1915) es una breve historia que narra de forma inolvidable el tránsito de la juventud a la edad adulta. Los avatares de un inexperto capitán que se hace cargo de un barco por vez primera, teniendo que afrontar las numerosas dificultades y contratiempos que surgen durante la travesía por los mares del Sur, sirven al autor de El corazón de las tinieblas para trazar esta fábula de lucha y esperanza en la que se entrevera de forma inevitable la nostalgia que lleva aparejada la superación de toda etapa vital.

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.
