Overview

Considerada por algunos críticos la gran novela inglesa del siglo XIX, Nostromo (1904) es un apasionante relato en el que la peripecia política se entrevera con la pintura de emociones y caracteres humanos, de la que Joseph Conrad (1857-1924) fue gran maestro, y con el fascinante ingrediente de la aventura. Situada la novela en la imaginaria Costaguana, en ella su protagonista es un personaje heroico y antiheroico a la vez que, enfrentado a una experiencia que le obliga a cuestionarse el molde en el que se ha fundido, se ve condenado por la decepción y por su dañado orgullo a un sutil tormento que acaba envenenando su existencia.

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.
