Nostromo: Introduction by Tony Tanner

Nostromo: Introduction by Tony Tanner

Joseph Conrad

Everyman's Library
1992
sidottu
Joseph Conrad's foresight and his ability to distill human adventure from complex historical circumstances were so keen that his greatest novel, Nostromo--though more than a century old--says as much about Latin America as any recent account of that region's turbulent political life. Conrad's story is set in the fictional Costaguana, a South American republic with a troubled history of tyranny and revolution. When wealthy businessman Charles Gould decides to use his valuable silver mine to support the current dictator in hopes of achieving stability, he instead sets off a new round of chaos and warfare. Fearful that his silver will fall into the hands of invading revolutionaries, Gould entrusts Nostromo--a man of the people considered by all to be incorruptible--with the task of escaping with and hiding a boatload of ingots from the mine. Nostromo's heroic actions save his city from revolution, but the fate of the silver becomes his dark secret, one that will destroy him. Insistently dramatic in its storytelling, spectacular in its re-creation of the subtropical landscape, this picture of an insurrectionary society and the opportunities it provides for moral corruption gleams on every page with its author's impeccable intelligence.

They weighed eight ounces-separately. Each glove laced tight to the tape wrapped fists of the fighter's abused hands. In total, they added a pound of weight-eight ounces of death dispensing leather and horsehair. The gloves were there to defend the boxer and prolong the battle. Men died wearing them and men killed using them.On the Depression racked streets of Chicago, it was hard to tell the good from the bad; hard to discover the truth among the lies; and especially hard to find an uncorrupt politician.It was Detective Tony Alfano's job to uncover a place to start.

Wonder Boy: Tony Hsieh, Zappos, and the Myth of Happiness in Silicon Valley
A Financial Times best business book of 2023In 1998, at the age of 24, Tony Hsieh sold his first company to Microsoft for $265 million.In 2009, at the age of 35, he sold his e-commerce company, Zappos, to Amazon for $1.2 billion.In 2020, at the age of 46, he died. Tony Hsieh revolutionized both the tech world and corporate culture. He was a business visionary. He was also a man in search of happiness. So why did it all go so wrong? Tony Hsieh's first successful venture was in middle school, selling personalized buttons. At Harvard, he made a profit compiling and selling study guides. From there, he went on to build the billion-dollar online shoe empire of Zappos. The secret to his success? Making his employees happy. At its peak, Zappos's employee-friendly culture was so famous across the tech industry that it inspired copycats and earned a cult following. Then Hsieh moved the Zappos headquarters to Las Vegas, where he personally funded a nine-figure campaign to revitalize the city's historic downtown area. But as Hsieh fell deeper into his struggles with mental health and drug addiction, the people making up his inner circle began changing from friends to enablers. Drawing on hundreds of interviews with a wide range of people whose lives Hsieh touched, journalists Angel Au-Yeung and David Jeans craft a rich portrait of a man who was plagued by his eternal search for happiness and ultimately succumbed to his own demons.
