Description
'Four Tales' by Joseph Conrad brings together four of his finest shorter works: 'The Nigger of the “Narcissus”', 'Youth', 'The Secret Sharer' and 'Freya of the Seven Isles'. Spanning the worlds of merchant ships, tropical seas and colonial encounters, the stories explore courage, isolation, loyalty, secrecy and the moral pressures placed upon individuals in unfamiliar circumstances. Conrad’s vivid maritime settings are matched by a deep interest in character and the often uncertain motives behind human actions. The collection provides an engaging introduction to the range of Conrad’s shorter fiction and his distinctive, atmospheric prose.
