Description
Based on Conrad’s own experience in the Congo, Heart of Darkness is the tale of Marlow, an Englishman hired by an ivory-trading company to captain a steamboat into the heart of darkest Africa. His destination is a post manned by the enigmatic ivory-trader Mr Kurtz, the company’s star agent, whose reputation as an ‘emissary of pity and science and progress’ precedes him. But what Marlow encounters, a thousand miles up the great river, is the embodiment of savagery, corruption and exploitation.
