Publisher's Synopsis
Falk (1903) is not one of Joseph Conrad's better-known stories, yet it deserves to be. It is just as successful as Heart of Darkness in exploring powerful and extreme situations. It was first published in the collection Typhoon and Other Tales (1903) and is the only one of Conrad's stories which did not first appear serialized in magazine publication. This was because the editor objected to the fact that the very powerfully evoked central female character never speaks. "Falk" by Joseph Conrad is a story of the protagonist who confesses his crime. He holds back a dreadful secret that restricts his ability to live life To The fullest. This is another work by Conrad that depicts human psychology and unravelling events of the contemporary era. Engrossing!
