Description
Heart Of Darkness by Joseph Conrad
Novel about a voyage up the Congo River into the Congo Free State, in the heart of Africa, by the story’s narrator Charles Marlow. Marlow tells his story to friends aboard a boat anchored on the River Thames. This setting provides the frame for Marlow’s story of his obsession with the ivory trader Kurtz, which enables Conrad to create a parallel between “the greatest town on earth” and Africa as places of darkness. Central to Conrad’s work is the idea that there is little difference between so-called civilised people and those described as savages; Heart of Darkness raises questions about imperialism and racism. Also includes two other stories, Youth and The End Of The Tether.
