When a stranded yacht carrying English aristocrats interrupts his mission to restore a deposed Malay prince to power, Lingard finds himself torn between his sworn duty and a consuming passion for the yacht's married owner, Edith Travers. Conrad constructs the novel with the brooding intensity and moral complexity that defines his finest work, presenting a collision between the colonial world and the indigenous one, between honour and desire. Rich in atmosphere and psychological depth, The Rescue stands as a testament to Conrad's mastery of sea fiction and his unflinching examination of human conflict and compromise.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956193734875,"sku":"2026200011129-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/21da4fad-7910-4863-85f1-3a6df8ad2810.png?v=1783498973","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200011129-secondhand-the-rescue","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
