I've only read Heart of Darkness so far and I'm interested in reading more of Conrad's writing. I'm on a tight budget, so I have to settle for just one book. What should I go with, Nostromo, or Lord Jim?

Neither, Nigger of the Narcissus and The Secret Agent are his top tier works

The Secret Agent it is then. Thanks a bunch, familia.
>>8071465
nostromo is his best imo (read jim/hod/short stories), definitely get that.
>>8071504
dont do it, secret agent is trash.
>>8071465
'Nostromo' is his best novel, imo.
>>8071787
No it isn't
Lord Jim was my favorite but I haven't read The Narcissistic Nigger

>I'm on a tight budget
Why run to the bookstore and fuck one book, when you can walk down to the library and fuck them all?

Literally everything Conrad ever wrote is on-line for free, including his rarer works, such as the play he wrote.
*ring ring* Hello? Oh, yes, he's here; hang on. Hey, OP. It's for you. It's 20fucking16 calling.

M8, I still haven't bought anything, don't play with me like this. What do you recommend instead?

I'm from a third-world country, so I doubt libraries here have any of the books I want in English.
I've got a budged of about 80-ish Eurodollars, and I'm set on buying Gravity's Rainbow, A Portrait of the Artist, and a Hamilton biography, so I can only afford one more book on top of those.

I guess I'm just backwards then. I just can't read on my Kindle.

buy a cheap e-reader or a tablet, at the very end a smartphone with a large display, depending on the country those can be less than 40$
