Title: Lord Jim, A Tale – 1992

Description: Lord Jim, A Tale – 1992. By: Joseph Conrad. Edited with an Introduction by John Batchelor. The Worlds Classics. Publisher: Oxford University Press. Printed in Great Britain. Lord Jim tells the story of a seaman haunted by his past actions. Set in the late 19th century, it explores themes of guilt, redemption, and the human capacity for bravery and cowardice. Lord Jim is a novel by Joseph Conrad originally published as a serial in Blackwood's Magazine, October 1899 to November 1900. An early and primary event in the story is the abandonment of a passenger ship in distress by its crew, including a young British seaman named Jim. He is publicly censured for this action and the novel follows his later attempts at coming to terms with himself and his past and seeking redemption and acceptance.. Very good condition, 7 1/2 x 5, rebound
