What to Focus On

  • Joseph Conrad was born of Polish parents in the Russian Ukraine.
  • He began seafaring in 1874, learnt English at 21, and became a British citizen in 1886.
  • His famous works include The Nigger of the Narcissus, Lord Jim, and Nostromo.

  • Captain Hagberd buys land and builds two cottages.
  • He waits for Harry's return and keeps shifting the date of hope to tomorrow.
  • Bessie Carvil supports the hope and becomes emotionally involved.

  • Captain Hagberd is a retired coasting-skipper with obsessive hope.
  • His canvas suit is self-made and not a naval uniform.
  • Bessie is patient, dutiful, and emotionally exhausted.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Captain Hagberd is a deep-sea sailor who has spent a long and adventurous life at sea.

The stranger at the gate is an outsider or an imposter, not Harry Hagberd.

Captain Hagberd knows the stranger is Harry but pretends otherwise on purpose.
