Summary

One moment of fear. One unforgivable mistake. A lifetime spent trying to make it right.
Young seaman Jim dreams of heroism, but when disaster strikes at sea, a single act of cowardice shatters his reputation. Haunted by guilt, he flees across oceans in search of a place where he can rebuild his honor. In a remote Eastern settlement, he finds trust, purpose, and a fragile peace—until fate tests him once again.

Praised as "one of Conrad's greatest psychological novels," Lord Jim explores shame, courage, loyalty, and the painful journey toward redemption. Its rich atmosphere, moral depth, and unforgettable characters continue to resonate with readers everywhere.

If you love introspective adventure, dramatic moral conflict, and stories of fragile humanity striving for greatness, this masterpiece is essential reading.

Open the book—and follow a man who refuses to let one mistake define his soul.

    The Game of Logic is a book written by Lewis Carroll, published in 1886. In addition to his well-known children's literature, Carroll was an academic mathematician who worked in mathematical logic. The book describes, in an informal and playful style, the use of a board game to represent logical propositions and inferences. Carroll incorporated the game into a longer and more formal introductory logic textbook titled Symbolic Logic, published in 1897. The books are sometimes reprinted in a single volume.
