Set in the fictional South American republic of Costaguana, Nostromo is a sweeping tale of political upheaval, personal ambition, and moral ambiguity. At its center stands the incorruptible Italian foreman Nostromo, whose reputation for honor becomes both his greatest asset and his ultimate burden in a world where empires rise on fragile dreams, and where even the most steadfast soul may be undone by the very ideals it seeks to serve.
Widely regarded as Conrad's finest longer work, Nostromo combines a richly layered narrative with a penetrating examination of power, wealth, and the illusions that sustain them. Against a backdrop of revolution and imperial intrigue, Conrad crafts a timeless meditation on loyalty, identity, and the cost of integrity in a world governed by greed and transactional allegiances.
This Warbler Classics edition includes the essay The Immense Indifference of Things by Joyce Carol Oates and an extensive biographical timeline.
