	Lord Jim by Joseph Conrad. Search, Read, Study, Discuss.
		Jim is inarticulate, self-obsessed, easily duped, and ultimately destroyed by his tendency to refer everything around him to the way in which he perceives himself.
		There is a tension in the book between the codes by which ordinary and unsung men live their lives of duty and self-sacrifice, and the ambitions of those who, in their own view at least, transcend the rules because they are born to a higher destiny.
		I read Lord Jim a long time ago, and I remember quite vividly a passage when Conrad says something to the effect that nobody knows how much courage one has or whether one is a coward until a situation arrives that decides the issue.

		Jim's fate constitutes the bankruptcy of all that stays for 'a moral identity'.
		Lord Jim is a rather downbeat novel, telling the tale of a young romantic who finds himself unable to forgive himself for a moment of moral weakness when he flees a sinking ship without attempting to rescue any of the hundreds of travellers asleep within.
		Jim's vision of himself as a brave and true fellow is so key to his ego that he literally can't face his own past actions, even though they are utterly understandable and human.

	Lord Jim Summary & Essays - Joseph Conrad
		Lord Jim, which Conrad began as a short sketch, grew into a novel that is widely recognized for its modernism—its tendency to buck the conventional narrative trends of its day.
		The story concerns a young man named Jim, who undertakes the training to become a naval officer, but his certificate is revoked when he deserts his ship during a crisis, leaving eight hundred Moslem pilgrims to what he thinks is a certain death—although the pilgrims live to tell the tale of his cowardice.
		Jim must face the fears from his old life, however, and his ability to finally do this leads to the novel's tragic and ambiguous ending.
