Sail into the heart of a storm—both literal and psychological—in this gripping radio adaptation of Joseph Conrad’s novella Typhoon. Captain MacWhirr is a quiet, stubborn man of few words, but when his steamer is caught in a ferocious South China Sea storm, his stoic nature is put to the ultimate test. As the crew struggles with the fury of nature and the burden of hundreds of Chinese workers in the hold, MacWhirr’s determination to follow the course—no matter the cost—becomes both admirable and unsettling.
