«El espejo del mar» is Joseph Conrad's book of memories and impressions of the sea, published by Orbis in hardcover (218 pages, in Spanish).
Joseph Conrad recalls his time as a merchant sailor and portrays man's relationship with the sea when steam was displacing sailing ships. Amid memories and impressions, he describes the states of the ocean and those who work it without idealizing them, and turns the sea into a metaphor for measuring oneself. It is personal memoir with nautical terminology.
This 1988 edition belongs to the Biblioteca del Mar collection and features a translation by Javier Marías and a prologue by Juan Benet.
Recommended for fans of naval literature and the narrative of Arturo Pérez-Reverte; the nautical terminology can be demanding.
