In despair, Flora takes refuge at sea on Captain Anthony’s ship, where tragedy and her transformation begin. Published in 1913, Chance was an immediate success.
Об авторе
Joseph Conrad (1857-1924), born the son of a noble Polish family as Józef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski, rechristened himself with his pen name. He became one of the greatest prose stylists and novelists in the English language. A precursor to modernist literature, he mined his experiences in the French and British navies to create tragic tales that simultaneously delve into worldwide issues and the individual soul.
