Samenvatting:

Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness is a haunting exploration of imperialism, morality, and the human psyche. Narrated by Charles Marlow, it recounts a journey along the Congo River into the depths of colonial Africa. What begins as a mission to retrieve the enigmatic trader Kurtz becomes a descent into both physical wilderness and the darkness within human souls. Conrad's prose is dense, symbolic, and atmospheric, offering both a gripping adventure and a critique of the brutal exploitation at the heart of European colonialism. The novella questions the thin line between civilization and savagery, leaving readers unsettled by the realization that the "darkness" lies not only in distant lands but also within the human heart.
