Rent Nostromo

Synopsis

Set in the fictional South American country of Costaguana, Nostromo explores the volatile politics and crippling greed surrounding the San Tome silver mine. The story of power, love, revolutions, loyalty, and reward is told with richly evocative descriptions and brilliantly realized characters. But Nostromo is more than an adventure story; it is also a profoundly dark moral fable. Its language is as compellingly resonant as the sea itself with characters that are absorbing and complex. It was Conrad's masterwork, a forerunner of modernism, and one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century.
