Originally released as vinyl records, these expertly abridged and remastered stories are now available to download for the first time.

Intrigue, espionage, and anarchy abound in what is still considered Conrad's finest novel. Adolf Verloc, a Russian spy working for the police, is embroiled in a plot to blow up the Greenwich Observatory. When the attack goes awry, Verloc must face the consequences.

Beloved star of the screen and stage, Tim Pigott Smith provides a thrilling narration of this strikingly relevant tale.

This top-notch political adventure, masterfully narrated by Tim Pigott Smith, takes you on a rollercoaster ride of action and crime. The best of Conrad's works, it's a tale that resonates with the current times, making it a must-read for all.

For fans of Fjodor M. Dostojewskij (THE COMPLETE WORKS OF FYODOR DOSTOYEVSKY), James Joyce (Dubliners), Cormac Mccarthy (Stella Maris), Herman Melville (Bartleby, the Scrivener), and George Eliot (Middlemarch).
