Victory by Joseph Conrad
2.0
This book could have benefited from a harsh editor. The POV makes a couple of major shifts- we start out with a second hand account being shared with the narrator, who disappears two chapters in, and NEVER COMES BACK. Then we move to omniscient narration.
I am pretty sure if I had read this back when it was originally written, all of the characters would have seemed like clever political commentary about ... something! But now, it just seems hackneyed.
