Published in 1911, this political novel delves into the psychological and moral struggles of its characters, set against the backdrop of early 20th-century Russian politics. The story follows Razumov, a student in St. Petersburg who becomes unwittingly involved in revolutionary activities. Through betrayal and conflicting loyalties, the novel explores themes of power, authority, and the individual's role within society. Conrad uses his intricate, introspective style to scrutinize the impact of political upheaval on personal lives.
JOSEPH CONRAD (1857-1924) was a remarkable figures in English literature. A master stylist, both lush and precise, his outsider's eye gave him special insights into the moral dangers of the great age of European empires.
