Beschreibung:
The Secret Agent by Joseph Conrad is a novel that tells the story of a man named Mr. Verloc and his involvement in a terrorist plot. Mr. Verloc is employed by a foreign government to carry out a terrorist attack, but he soon discovers that he is not the only one with a plan. The novel explores the themes of loyalty, betrayal, and morality, and it is considered to be one of Conrad's most accomplished works.
A member of an anarchist cell and a secret agent Mr. Verloc is ordered to carry out a terrorist attack on Greenwich Observatory by a bomb explosion. The novel is set in London and follows lives of Verloc, who also owns a sex shop, and his friends, a group of anarchists, largely ineffectual as terrorists, yet well known to the police.
