"Youth" by Joseph Conrad is a poignant tale that explores the contrasting themes of youth and age through the story of Marlow, who reminisces about his early days as a young sailor. He recounts a voyage to the East with a group of idealistic young men, including the impetuous and ambitious Jim. As they face the challenges of the sea and the realities of life, the narrative reflects on the dreams and disillusionments that accompany youth. The story captures the exuberance of youth and the inevitable passage of time, highlighting the bittersweet nature of growth and the loss of innocence.

Joseph Conrad was a master prose stylist, widely regarded as one of the greatest English-language novelists. Writing in the heyday of the British Empire, Conrad drew upon his experiences in the French and later the British Merchant Navy to create short stories and novels that reflect aspects of a worldwide empire while also plumbing the depths of the human soul.
