It's very well written. A book about maturing and becoming a man, taking responsability for your own life and the lifes of others.
Kind of based in a true history, also. Joseph Conrad was himself a mariner.

Don't recommend Nietzsche.

I couldn't find the exact picture I had in mind, but this is the feel I'm searching for: A man who stands alone, with his back turned to the world, in pursuit of wisdom and knowledge and greater things. Someone who lives in the world but is not of it, someone who loves people but does not crave their love, someone who does not concern themselves with the trivialities that others worry about, someone who cannot be distracted from the greater cause of their existence.
