With gorgeous new packaging, a new introduction, and an updated bibliography, this reissue celebrates the classic novel that set the style for a whole new class of literature: novels of an outcast from civilization finding refuge in the tropics. This is a story of dramatic action and psychological penetration, a work that critic Morton Danwen Zabel calls an example of Conrad's "central theme...the grip of circumstances that enforce self-discovery and its cognate, the discovery of reality of truth."
A book of the rare literary quality of Lord Jim is something to receive with gratitude and joy, and with a sense of a distinction conferred upon the readers of romance. —The New York Times Book Review
