About the book

Joseph Conrad's The Secret Sharer follows a young ship's captain who secretly shelters a fugitive sailor aboard his vessel. The captain becomes fascinated by the man, seeing him almost as a reflection of himself, while struggling to conceal his presence from the crew. The story explores identity, leadership, guilt and the psychological uncertainty of a man assuming command for the first time.
