Nostromo (Unabridged)
Publisher: Blackstone Audiobooks Author: Joseph Conrad Audio lenght: 18 hours and 39 min.
Joseph Conrad's masterpiece, Nostromo, is a multilayered work about violent revolution and the moral destruction of a heroic man. Conrad convincingly invents an entire country, Costaguana, and sets it afire as men battle for power and a fortune in silver. No other work so perfectly creates characters at every level of society, from the English empire-builder Charles Gould to the handsome Italian sailor Nostromo, who, like the country, is about to be consumed by secret guilt and corruption. Ambitiously bringing to life an era of Latin American history, Nostromo seems as contemporary as Gabriel Garcia Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude, as uncannily relevant today as when Conrad penned it in 1904.
