Typhoon

The steamboat Nan-Shan, commanded by the stern Captain Macuir, is sailing from Siam to China with passengers – Chinese coolies returning home after many years of working abroad – and finds itself in the heart of a powerful typhoon. Among... the passengers, a hysterical panic is rising, threatening to turn into a mass brawl. Young assistant to the captain, Jax, struggles to keep himself together. The crew is on edge. And only the captain continues to fight calmly against the maddened element... In addition to the Typhoon, with its most famous ellipsis in literary history, the collection includes two more classic novellas by Joseph Conrad – The End of Slavery and the one considered one of his main literary masterpieces, The Duel, adapted by Ridley Scott.
