Description
Under Western Eyes by Joseph Conrad In pre-revolutionary Russia, the legacy of Peter the Great looms large, its autocratic rule tempered by assassination. For Razumov, a young man striving to overcome his noble birth through a career in the tsarist bureaucracy, this world is both alluring and treacherous. As he navigates the complexities of Russian society, Razumov becomes embroiled in a tragic web of events that draws him into the orbit of an Englishman who loves Natalia, a woman with ties to Geneva. This story, told by an elderly observer, offers a glimpse into a world of espionage and deception. Published by National Geographic Books, Under Western Eyes is part of Penguin Classics, a renowned series of authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes from distinguished scholars and contemporary authors.
