Аннотация
Conrad set his novel in the mining town of Sulaco, an imaginary port in the occidental region of the imaginary country of Costaguana. Costaguana has a long history of tyranny, revolution and warfare, but has recently experienced a period of stability under the dictator Ribiera. The book has more fully developed characters than any other of his novels, but two characters dominate the narrative: Señor Gould and the eponymous anti-hero, the «incorruptible» Nostromo.

Аннотация
Escrita el 1895, La follia d'Almayer va ser la primera novel·la de Conrad, i l'obra que el va decidir a deixar el mar per la literatura. La història transcorre en una zona inexplorada de l'illa de Borneo, a la vora del riu Pantai, on s'estableix el comerciant holandès Kaspar Almayer, casat amb una dona malaia que havia estat capturada en un vaixell pirata. L'objectiu d'Almayer és, un cop enriquit, marxar d'allà cap a Europa amb la seva filla Nina, però el seu projecte es veu frustrat quan ella s'enamora d'un nadiu, fill d'un poderós rajà. En aquesta primera novel·la, Conrad hi retrata un món, el dels mars del Sud, que havia conegut en la seva etapa a la Marina Mercant britànica, però al mateix temps ofereix una visió de l'imperialisme que s'allunya de la que havia caracteritzat el gènere de la ficció exòtica. Tot capgirant la percepció colonial dels indígenes com a éssers aptes per a ser conquerits, hi qüestiona l'actuació dels colonitzadors europeus, britànics i holandesos, de manera que mostra la seva fortalesa com a debilitat, els seus somnis com a follia. El llibre va ser portat al cinema el 2011 per la prestigiosa directora belga Chantal Akerman.
