Sinossi

‘The reaches opened before us and closed behind, as if the forest had stepped leisurely across the water to bar the way for our return. We penetrated deeper and deeper into the heart of darkness.’ 
At the peak of European Imperialism, steamboat captain Charles Marlow travels deep into the African Congo on his way to relieve the elusive Mr Kurtz, an ivory trader renowned for his fearsome reputation. On his journey into the unknown Marlow takes a terrifying trip into his own subconscious, overwhelmed by his menacing, perilous and horrifying surroundings. 
The landscape and the people he meets force him to reflect on human nature and society, and in turn Conrad writes revealingly about the dangers of imperialism. 
Heart of Darkness, a top classic in the realm of fiction, delves into the terrifying journey of self-discovery amidst the backdrop of imperialism. Conrad's best work, it forces readers to confront the horrifying realities of society and human nature. 
For fans of William Faulkner (As I Lay Dying & The Sound and The Fury & Light In August & Absalom, Absalom), Cormac Mccarthy (The Crossing), Franz Kafka (The Unhappiness of Being a Single Man), Graham Greene (The Quiet American), and Enoch Abiodun (The Story of a Lover).
