About the book

Joseph Conrad's The Rover is set on the Mediterranean coast of France during the Napoleonic era and follows Peyrol, an ageing sailor and former privateer seeking a quiet retirement. His attempt to withdraw from adventure is disrupted by political intrigue and the continuing conflict between Britain and France. Conrad combines maritime atmosphere with themes of loyalty, sacrifice and the difficulty of escaping one's past.
