Riassunto

Almayer's Folly, originally published in 1895, is Joseph Conrad's first novel. It tells the story of Kaspar Almayer, a Dutch trader living in Borneo, and his relationships with his Malay wife, their daughter, and the others in his increasingly limited sphere of influence. A moving and unforgettable tale of isolation, self-delusion and betrayal, it contains many of the themes Conrad returned to repeatedly in his subsequent novels exploring imperialism and the human condition. Exciting, thought-provoking and tragic, Almayer's Folly is a must for any reader interested in human motivation, conflict and the clash of cultures.
