Description
A Tale of Impossible Duty, Forbidden Love, and Ultimate Sacrifice. Set against the turbulent backdrop of the Malay Archipelago, The Rescue is Joseph Conrad's sweeping romantic epic—his final and most personal word on the "Lingard" trilogy. Tom Lingard, the fearless and renowned adventurer known as "Rajah Laut" (King of the Sea), is a man of absolute loyalty. He has pledged his life, his influence, and his brig Lightning to restoring a native prince to his throne. But his fixed destiny is shattered when, on a still night in the Shallows, he discovers a stranded English yacht, the Hermit. Aboard are Mr. and Mrs. Travers, aristocratic Europeans embodying the polished, sophisticated world he has left behind. Entrusted with their safety, Lingard is torn apart by an impossible conflict: his sacred, sworn duty to his native allies and his overwhelming, reckless passion for the enigmatic Edith Travers. As political intrigue tightens and the threat of war looms, Lingard's unwavering code of honour becomes his prison. His strength, once the source of his power, paralyzes him. In a world where every choice is a betrayal, he must navigate a labyrinth of cross-cultural allegiance, personal desire, and crushing moral consequence. A novel of grand adventure and intense psychological drama, The Rescue masterfully explores the clash of civilizations and the devastating power of a love that demands the surrender of a man's very identity.
