The Mirror of the Sea

Meer over het boek

Joseph Conrad, a Polish-British writer, is celebrated for his mastery of prose and unique perspective on the human condition. His works often feature nautical settings and explore the struggles of the human spirit against an indifferent universe. Despite not mastering English until his twenties, he infused his narratives with a distinct sensibility, making significant contributions to English literature. Conrad’s storytelling captures the complexities of life and the challenges faced by individuals in a vast, often unfathomable world.
