Joseph Conrad
Jim, the first mate aboard a small steamer named the Patna, travels from port to port in the Pacific Ocean. When the ship hits floating wreckage, Jim and the crew are forced to abandon it, leaving hundreds of ethnic travelers onboard. However, Jim's reprehensible actions are soon discovered by the court, and he is compelled to face his guilt and redeem himself - a journey that leads him to a remote exotic location where he is revered as the Lord, "Tuan Jim".
Through beautifully evocative descriptions and ponderous philosophical prose, Conrad delivers a powerful novel about one man's struggle to reconcile who he would like to be with who he actually is.

#lordjim is my fourth #josephconrad novel, having read #thesecretagent by recommendation and #nostromo #heartofdarkness and, now Lord Jim due to their inclusion on the list of the #modernlibrarytop100novels . Of course, having watched #apocalysenow repeatedly, Heart Of Darkness had always been an objective as it was the influence of the screenplay by #francisfordcoppola .
Lord Jim tells the story of a young merchant naval officer aboard of the Crew of a pilgrim Ship en route to Mecca that begins to take on water. Joining his Crew members who abandoned ship, leaving the hundreds of passengers to their own fate, their unexpected rescue and Jim's inability to mount a successful defense of his actions finds him stripped of his sailing certificates and resigned to serving as a Ship's chandler, bouncing from Port to Port as his shameful abandonment and public drubbing always catches up with him. Recurring Conrad character #charlesmarlow , who had also served as the narrator of Heart of Darkness returns to try to help Jim find someplace where he can escape the shame that follows him. This leads him to serving at an extremely remote upriver trading post where he seems to come into this own right, at least until the pirates arrive.
it is an excellent tale and the #audible reader effectively told the story though I would have preferred a bit more dash in the reading. Either way, it's an excellent addition to the library and a fascinating moral story when one's hope to bring peace and compassion to a situation can introduce tragedy and accusations of cowardice that always stalk you.

Extravagant wording from another age.

As for the story and what it is about ... well, you can read the Audible blurb for that which, in my opinion, says too much. Suffice it to say that this is a story of self-discovery, judgment and redemption, as one sees himself and as others see him.
This was a GREAT experience.
Wow! This Blew My Mind.
