Joseph Conrad 
Nostromo [EPUB ebook] 

It was doubtless for everyone: the old boat, that carried a mountain of silver ingots to the island, sank in an unknown place. But only the fearless and everyone’s favorite sailor Nostromo knows that this is not true: treasures are hidden in the place only he knows.
Each time, sailing to the island, he took two or three silver ingots, believing that ‘it is necessary to become rich slowly.’ But every day the former merry fellow became more and more withdrawn and irritable. Treasures took possession of him. And his life was interrupted by an accidental, but accurate shot of an old soldier.
Pretty illustrations by Vladislav Trotsenko provide you with new impressions from reading this legendary story.
