Book excerpt: As revolution rocks the nation of Costaguana, the seemingly incorruptible Nostromo is entrusted with the safekeeping and international sale of silver from his employer's mine. But when the boat transporting Nostromo and his cargo is sunk by rebels, Nostromo's decision to hide the silver on a deserted island comes to haunt him for the remainder of his life. Written at the height of author Joseph Conrad's career, Nostromo explores the impact of colonialism, rebellion, and corruption on an honourable man.
