诺斯特罗莫
位列美国现代文库20世纪百佳英语小说第47位。 F.S.菲茨杰拉德说:“我宁愿我写出了《诺斯特罗莫》而不是其他小说”。 这部长篇小说被认为是一部政治小说杰作,美国现代文库评选的20世纪百佳英语小说将之排在第47位。 小说虚构了一个南美国家科斯塔瓦那,这个国家长期处于暴政、革命和战争之中。查尔斯•古尔德拥有一座藏量丰富的银矿,他对这个国家的动荡与无处不在的腐败深恶痛绝,决定用他的财富支持当时的独裁政府,认为此举能给这个国家带来稳定。但是开采银矿将带来的巨额财富招致各种势力的觊觎,引发了新一轮的革命和自我割据的军阀战争,将这个国家带入更大的混乱之中。腐败与贪婪侵入了每一个人的生活,小说的主角“不被腐蚀”的诺斯特罗莫面临着巨大的考验。 -

Conrad's narrator encounters at the end of the story a man named Kurtz, dying, insane, and guilty of unspeakable atrocities. -
