Victory, Hardback Book

Victory Hardback

Part of the Everyman's Library CLASSICS series

Hardback

Description

3et in the Malay Archipelago, where Conrad spent much of his youth as an officer in the British Merchant Navy, VICTORY is a sombre yet brilliant study of good and evil in Conrad's mature manner.

The characteristic theme of a man reaching out from his apparently total solitude in sympathy for another human being is explored through the story of Axel Heyst's attempt to rescue a girl from the machinations of a brutal gang.

Conrad's extraordinary blend of moral profundity, pathos and bitter irony is conjured up in prose which is at once atmospheric and inimitable.

The book is published to coincided with the film staring Rufus Sewell Sam Neill, William Defoe and Irene Jacob
