Beschreibung

What does it mean to be cast out—not just from society, but from your own conscience?

In An Outcast of the Islands, Joseph Conrad explores the moral descent of Peter Willems, a corrupt European trader who flees to a remote Southeast Asian village after being disgraced. There, he finds a fragile peace—until lust, ambition, and colonial exploitation awaken his darker instincts once again.

Conrad delivers a haunting narrative of greed, betrayal, and imperial decay, revealing the psychological rot at the heart of colonial power. Written in his signature atmospheric style, this novel offers a deep exploration of guilt, loyalty, and cultural collision.

💬 "Atmospheric, unflinching, and morally complex—Conrad at his most haunting."

🌏 Why This Classic Still Resonates:
A vivid portrayal of moral collapse and psychological torment

Explores colonialism, exile, and corruption with bold clarity

Perfect for readers who loved Heart of Darkness, The Secret Agent, or The Poisonwood Bible

    "So what are you? Go back where you belong!" 
     
     
     
    Majority white American culture has historically marginalized people of color, who at times feel invisible and alienated and at other times are traumatized by oppression and public discrimination. This reality leads to a particular kind of aloneness: ethnic and racial loneliness. 
     
     
     
    An Indian American immigrant who grew up in white Southern culture, Prasanta Verma names and sheds light on the realities of ethnic loneliness. She unpacks the exhausting effects of cultural isolation, the dynamics of marginalization, and the weight of being other. In the midst of disconnection and erasure, she points to the longing to belong, the need to share our stories, and the hope of finding safe friendships and community. Our places of exile can become places where we find belonging—to ourselves, to others, and to God.
