Youth, and, The end of the tether
Classic fiction
Human-transcribed braille
Summary
Both of these stories sprang from Joseph Conrad's own experience sailing in the Far East with the merchant navy. In 'Youth' Conrad captures a young man's exhilaration in the face of danger and the unknown. In 'The End of the… Tether' Captain Whalley, aging but still afloat, compromises his principles without understanding what can follow. Life, like the sea, is unsparing, and the captain's fate arrives in due course.
