Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Nostromo: A Tale of the Seaboard" by Joseph Conrad is a novel published in 1904. Set in the fictional South American republic of Costaguana, the story follows the charismatic Italian longshoreman Nostromo as he attempts to smuggle a fortune in silver away from revolutionary forces. Entrusted by mine owner Charles Gould to protect the treasure, Nostromo finds himself trapped between loyalty and temptation. What begins as a daring mission becomes a tale of corruption, obsession, and the devastating cost of secret wealth.
