Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set in London during 1886, the narrative follows Mr. Adolf Verloc, a spy entangled in themes of anarchism, terrorism, and espionage. This political novel marks a shift from Conrad's earlier maritime tales, delving into the complexities of exploitation and the underbelly of society. Recognized as a significant work of the 20th century, it gained renewed attention in American media post-9/11. The modern edition also features a new biography, celebrating Conrad's legacy as a pivotal figure in English literature.
