So I picked up this very nice 1932 copy of Conrad stories at the local antiques store up here in Beulah, a good condition Doubleday.
I think the most interesting story of the bunch is definitely Falk,
These are all classic Conrad and I was itching for more so I am glad to have found it. Conrad at his best "going dark"
Typhoon is the Action story of the four.
In a day and age where you had to "know the signs" it was a judgment call.
Amy Foster is a story of race and prejudice (oddly relevant)
Picture yourself in the position of the main character; an awful position to be in
Falk is about past deeds, acceptance, self interests, and love.
Picture yourself in the position of the main character; an awful position to be in
Tomorrow is about longing for what is gone and self delusion
This old geezer has no idea why "the boy" don't come home
