Tales of Hearsay

📙 Joseph Conrad was a Polish-British writer regarded as one of the greatest novelists to write in the English language. Though he did not speak English fluently until his twenties, he was a master prose stylist who brought a non-English sensibility into English literature. He wrote stories and novels, many with a nautical setting, that depict trials of the human spirit in the midst of an impassive, inscrutable universe.
This volume published in 1911 contains four tales; The Warrior's Soul, Prince Roman, The Tale, and The Black Mate.
