Summary

"Lord Jim" is a novel by Joseph Conrad, originally published as a serial in Blackwood's Magazine from 1899 to 1900 and later as a book in 1900. The novel is a complex exploration of honor, guilt, and redemption through the story of Jim, a young British seaman. Jim dreams of being a hero but is faced with a critical test when he abandons a ship in distress. His idealism is shattered by his actions, and the novel follows his quest for atonement. Conrad's narrative delves into the psychological depth of Jim's character, using a non-linear storytelling technique that was innovative for its time.
