Title : Fortune - Joseph Conrad - book
Summary :
The Ferndale is indeed the most disturbing ship there is, in the sense that our planet is disturbing, with its murky atmosphere of passions, jealousy, love, hatred, with the calamity of transcendent good wills. And it took chance to choose the Ferndale, among all the ships then in the port of London, to ensure young Powell his first step in life. Now he is under the spell of the fatal enchantment exerted on him by the enigmatic Captain Anthony, Flora De Barral, a pale young woman who seems doomed to misfortune, and her father, an old financier imprisoned for fraudulent bankruptcy. The greatest, the most beautiful of Conrad's novels.
