O autorovi
Joseph Conrad (1857–1924) was a Polish-born British novelist who wrote remarkable literature in English, which was not his native language. As a young man, he became a sailor and drew upon his global voyages to depict the complexities of human nature and the dark side of imperialism. His major works include Heart of Darkness, Lord Jim, and Nostromo, all known for their rich symbolism and psychological depth.
