Exile, greed, and the slow unraveling of a man's soul.

In An Outcast of the Islands, Joseph Conrad delivers a gripping tale of ambition, isolation, and betrayal in the exotic colonial outposts of Southeast Asia. Centered on Peter Willems, a corrupt and disgraced European, the novel delves into the devastating impact of imperialism and the moral consequences of power and self-deception.

This powerful early work is a richly atmospheric companion to Heart of Darkness and Lord Jim, blending psychological complexity with Conrad's signature maritime storytelling.
