Synopsis
A John Bull English gunrunner recalls his haunted Malayan friend, Karain, and his exotic superstitions and memories. Yet where does the reality lie? Two colonial officers extol the benefits they are bringing to an African village in the form of 'quays and warehouses, and barracks -- and billiard-rooms'. A French republican who has fathered two idiot-sons makes his peace with the Church -- only to have an idiot-daughter. A woman chooses not to leave her husband ... but he leaves her. Such are the ironies of Conrad's earliest short stories, no apprentice work but miniature masterpieces in their own right. As astoundingly original in construction as the great novels that were to come, these tales are in many ways more challenging and more disturbing still. A sense of human existence as surprising and often perplexing informs every page of this remarkable collection. Complex, arresting and unsettling, these are indeed 'tales of unrest'.

- v***v (2061)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
- 2***j (113)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
