This is an automatically translated description

Three examples of short fiction by the famous British writer originally from Ukraine. Conrad reflects on his own experience of separation from his homeland in the themes of loneliness and wandering touched upon in the stories Amy Foster (1901) and Tomorrow (1902). This range of themes is still close to the Ukrainian reader today, as several "waves" of mass emigration in the late nineteenth and early twenty-first centuries live in our memory. Amy Foster tells the story of an emigrant from Galicia who starts a new life in England, and Tomorrow is a story about the return home of a prodigal son, who has been waiting for years for his father, an elderly sailor. Meanwhile, the story "Falk" (1901) contrasts, as the author himself once noted, "ordinary human sensitivity and the straightforwardness of a man who is more or less submissive to his instincts, a man who is still honest with his chosen one.
