Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outcast of the Islands When he stepped off the straight and narrow path of his peculiar honesty, it was with an inward assertion of unflinching resolve to fall back again into the monotonous but safe stride of virtue as soon as his little excursion into the wayside quagmires had produced the desired effect. It was going to be a short episode - a sentence in brackets, so to speak - in the flowing tale of his life: a thing of no moment, to be done unwillingly, yet neatly, and to be quickly forgotten. He imagined that he could go on afterwards looking at the sunshine, enjoying the shade, breathing in the perfume of flowers in the small garden before his house. He fancied that nothing would be changed, that he would be able as heretofore to tyrannise good-humouredly over his half-caste wife, to notice with tender contempt his pale yellow child, to patronise loftily his dark-skinned brother-in-law, who loved pink neckties and wore patent-leather boots on his little feet, and was so humble before the white husband of the lucky sister.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Outcast Involuntarily she glanced across at the house. It was a good-sized place in itself, but in such a state of dilapidation as to be largely uninhabitable; the pair lived now in one small outbuilding, which the previous tenants, sea-captains all, had used for kitchen and larder. "If only he'd had a liking for the sea," went on Mor Elversson to herself, "like his father and grandfather before him. He'd have laid by something now, and we'd be able to look forward to old age in ease and comfort. But he's always been set on farming and field work and such, and little enough it's brought us." She did not move from her place while her husband was speaking, but her little head, that moved quickly and easily as a bird's, turned slightly as she glanced over the patches of cornfield and potato, little islands of growth among the barren rock that formed the greater part of the island. Every little strip of cultivation was her husband's work; the very soil was, in a manner of speaking, his creation. He had brought endless boatloads of earth and manure to Grimon, in the firm conviction that he must one day reap a rich reward for his pains. "All that trouble for so many bits of earth, and poor at that," thought his wife to herself. "Needs but one good northerly gale at Whitsuntide, and all the sowing and planting'd be nowhere Nay, 'tis to the sea we should look for our daily bread, living here as we do. There's neither right nor reason in it else." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book An Outcast of the Islands written by Joseph Conrad and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An Outcast of the Islands" is my second novel in the absolute sense of the word; second in conception, second in execution, second as it were in its essence. There was no hesitation, half-formed plan, vague idea, or the vaguest reverie of anything else between it and "Almayer's Folly." The only doubt I suffered from, after the publication of "Almayer's Folly," was whether I should write another line for print. Those days, now grown so dim, had their poignant moments. Neither in my mind nor in my heart had I then given up the sea. In truth I was clinging to it desperately, all the more desperately because, against my will, I could not help feeling that there was something changed in my relation to it. "Almayer's Folly," had been finished and done with. The mood itself was gone. But it had left the memory of an experience that, both in thought and emotion was unconnected with the sea, and I suppose that part of my moral being which is rooted in consistency was badly shaken. I was a victim of contrary stresses which produced a state of immobility. I gave myself up to indolence. Since it was impossible for me to face both ways I had elected to face nothing. The discovery of new values in life is a very chaotic experience; there is a tremendous amount of jostling and confusion and a momentary feeling of darkness. I let my spirit float supine over that chaos.

Download or read book An Outcast of the Islands (1896) Novel (World's Classics) written by Joseph Conrad and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-11 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Outcast of the Islands is the second novel by Joseph Conrad, published in 1896, inspired by Conrad's experience as mate of a steamer, the Vidar. The novel details the undoing of Peter Willems, a disreputable, immoral man who, on the run from a scandal in Makassar, finds refuge in a hidden native village, only to betray his benefactors over lust for the tribal chief's daughter. The story features Conrad's recurring character Tom Lingard, who also appears in Almayer's Folly (1895) and The Rescue (1920), in addition to sharing other characters with those novels. It is considered to be underrated as a work of literature for many. Conrad romanticizes the jungle environment and its inhabitants in a similar style to his "Heart of Darkness."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Joseph Conrad: Almayer's Folly; An Outcast of the Islands; Tales of Unrest; The Arrow of Gold and the Rover The dream Of Almayer is to bring this beautiful girl back to Amsterdam - the cradle Of her people-to make her so wealthy that people will forget the Malay stain; to have her rich, honoured, a leader in that white society which alone seems to him worthy Of consideration. And the tragedy is that Nina will have none Of these things. It is the savage instincts Of the mother, not the civilized longings Of the father, that attract her. The white man had wounded her in her earliest years. She had been sent to Singapore to be trained in civilized ways and in the Christian creed; but she had been forcibly turned out Of the white community and sent back to her father because a white man had preferred the splendour Of her beauty to the paler charms Of the pure white daughters Of the household. Hence she can listen with interest, and even with greedy ears, to the hideous hag, her mother, even after that mother has poured forth all the vials of her un reason, vulgarity, and savagery on the gentle, tender, helpless dreamer who adores her - her father.
