The life of Joseph Conrad, born in Poland in 1857 and later a British citizen, is marked by early tragedy and adventure. Orphaned at 11 and raised by an uncle, he embarked on a maritime career at 16, engaging in activities like gun running and political intrigue. At 36, he transitioned from seafaring to writing, enriching English literature with his unique style and profound insights into the human psyche. His notable works include Lord Jim, Nostromo, The Shadow Line, and the acclaimed Heart of Darkness.
