Heart of Darkness

Customer Reviews

'Heart of Darkness' is a superlative novella... - By: Mr. P. G. Hargreaves, 22 Nov 1999
'Heart of Darkness' is an extremely profound novella. The rendition of the Congo as told by Marlow is a deep psychological investigation of the self & how Imperialism damages the African continent. 'Heart of Darkness' is a narrative built around criticising the colonial invasion & the materialist acquisition of ivory. The 'heart of darkness' itself is a place full of moral & psychological questions. Conrad transports the reader into the interior of Africa through Marlow with an extreme clarity of atmosphere. Conrad not only anticipates the moral obligation todays generation would feel towards Africa, but also the severe & intense guilt that would befalll us. This novella is worth reading for the horrible, acquistional & savage 'heart' of the book alone. Take the journey with Marlow & have your eyes opened wide, then you will also see 'The horror! The horror!'...
