Title: Lord Jim Author: Joseph Conrad Narrator: John Lee Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 30 minutes Release date: February 22, 2010 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: Lord Jim tells the story of a young, idealistic Englishman—'as unflinching as a hero in a book'—who is disgraced by a single act of cowardice while serving as an officer on the Patna, a merchant-ship sailing from an eastern port. His life is ruined: an isolated scandal has assumed horrifying proportions. But then he is befriended by an older man named Marlow who helps to establish him in exotic Patusan, a remote Malay settlement where his courage is put to the test once more. Lord Jim is about courage and cowardice, self-knowledge and personal growth. It is one of the most profound and rewarding psychological novels in English. Set in the context of social change and colonial expansion in late Victorian England, it embodies in Jim the values and turmoil of a fading empire.
