Description
About the book: "Lord Jim" by Joseph Conrad follows the life of Jim, a young British seaman condemned for abandoning a ship in distress. Publicly censured, Jim grapples with guilt and seeks redemption. In his journey, he encounters Marlow, a sea captain, who becomes both mentor and observer of Jim's struggles. The plot shifts to the remote village of Patusan, where Jim, known as "Tuan Jim" or Lord Jim, strives to redeem himself. Despite his efforts, tragedy ensues when a marauding captain, Gentleman Brown, disrupts Patusan. The story explores themes of honor, guilt, and the quest for redemption against a vivid backdrop of maritime and colonial settings.
