Description
Under Western Eyes is a novel by Joseph Conrad, published in 1911. Set against the backdrop of St. Petersburg and Geneva, the story explores themes of revolution, idealism, and the human condition. Conrad's work is marked by cynicism and conflict, as he examines the historical failures of revolutionary movements and ideals. The author also delves into the irrationality of life, the opacity of character, and the unfairness with which suffering is inflicted upon the innocent and poor. In this book, Conrad expresses his concerns with ideas to the exclusion of everything else, offering a thought-provoking exploration of the human experience.
