Typhoon Joseph Conrad Books Reviews
xactly what was wanted
This publication is a fraud. The cover says Typhoon but inside it is a different story. Somebody reprinted a sea story (Conrad?) and put a Typhoon jacket on it.
Worth reading just to admire Conrad's mastery of language, made even more impressive because he was born Jozef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski, in Poland in 1857. He knew only a few words in English as a teenager, did not read or write English at all until he was in his twenties, yet all of his books - classics which have influenced dozens of modern writers - were written in English. His 20-plus years at sea on sailing vessels, roaming all the world's oceans in every position from deck hand to master (captain) for the French and British merchant fleets, gave him a deep and rich understanding of the sea - and the men who sailed upon it. His descriptions of the sea in all its moods and his development of characters are superb.
Good story. A bit long in the tooth. Characters are a bit under developed
A classic in the utilization of vivid descriptions and masterful scene painting skills. It is impossible to read without feeling the typhoons lashing at the room around you. Easy to see why it is a well-studied work by many students.
Enjoyed the descriptive prose the ship personnel experienced. This included the ship and the weather conditions. You felt right in the middle of a maelstrom.
Although this book was written in 1902, the action could have taken place in modern times. Joseph Corad did an excellent job of writing a story about the crew of a ship caught in a violent storm.
