Within the Tides by Joseph Conrad, Fiction, Classics

From "The Planter of Malata": "Here we don't consider him a monster," said the newspaper man looking at his visitor thoughtfully. "Probably not. You are used to see his face and to see other faces. I don't know how it is that, when I come to town, the appearance of the people in the street strike me with such force. They seem so awfully expressive." "And not charming." "Well -- no. Not as a rule. The effect is forcible without being clear. . . ." This volume also includes "The Partner," "The Inn of the Two Witches," and "Because of the Dollars."
