Lord Jim (1900) is a story of ships and the sea and quasi-imperial adventure, and a profound exploration of courage, honour, and man's conduct in an imperfect world. Jim's single act of cowardice blights his life and the atonement he demands of himself is absolute. Christopher Hope is a novelist and writer whose works include Serenity House, Darkest England, White Boy Running (1988) and Me, The Moon and Elvis Presley (1997).
