"All this life, must be life, since it is so much like a dream": The Heritage Press Edition of Joseph Conrad's Nostromo
The Heritage Press edition of what many consider to be Conrad's masterpiece. Quarto, bound in three-quarter modern morocco by Morrell with gilt titles to the spine in six compartments within raised bands, top edge gilt, marbled endpapers, frontispiece and title page vignette, illustrated throughout. In near fine condition. Introduction by Rupert Croft-Cooke. Illustrated by Lima de Freitas.
A gripping tale of capitalist exploitation and rebellion, set in the fictional South American mining town of Sulaco, Conrad employs flashbacks and glimpses of the future to depict the lure of silver and its effects on men. "Nostromo" is a classic tale of the power of money, its ability to corrupt and the turmoil that this corruption can create. Conrad's deep moral consciousness and masterful narrative technique are at their best in what many consider one of his best works. Named by Modern Library as one of top 100 novels of the twentieth century.
