A ship's captain intends to help friends reclaim their land but gets distracted by a marooned yacht and the married woman on board. One of Conrad's less familiar tales, this powerfully intense novel provides atmospheric seafaring glimpses of the Malay archipelago and a suspenseful plot that builds to an explosive climax. "Absorbingly interesting: dramatic, subtle, fascinating." - The New York Times.
