Finally read it and now I finally get Apocalypse Now, really I should have read this years ago but it just seems like the world is steaming up this river now. ( ) A novella, rather than a novel. But one of the most devastating looks into the folly of colonialism ever penned. I would say this book was often aped, but never bettered. We embark on a voyage away from the clean seas, into the darkest, and most diseased parts of the continent, and the soul, intent on what happened to a man we once revered, and find out what has become of him, and of ourselves. I had to read this book for an AP Lit class in high school and really just didn't enjoy it very much. I feel like most of the time was spent on a boat (if I remember correctly) and it was really dark and depressing. I'm not even sure that it's worth a two star review except that I can't really remember much of it at this point in time so I'm giving in the benefit of the doubt. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

In "Heart of Darkness, Captain Marlowe must wend his way up the African Congo to recover the missing Colonel Kurtz in one of the greatest steamship adventures ever told. As Marlowe's ship Nellie scrapes along the Congo, the voyage into the human soul, like the morass of steaming foliage along the banks, becomes increasingly dark and perilous. In addition to the Marlowe tales "Heart of Darkness and "Youth, this new volume includes Conrad's classic doppelganger tale "The Secret Sharer and the lesser known "Amy Foster." Michael Matin is a professor in the English Department of Warren Wilson College in Asheville, North Carolina. Includes an Original Map of the Congo.
