Heart of Darkness

A journey into the heart of Africa becomes a journey into the heart of man's darkest depths.

Heart of Darkness (1899), by Joseph Conrad, is a chilling and atmospheric novella that explores colonialism, moral corruption, and the fragile boundaries between civilization and savagery.

The story follows Marlow, a seaman who takes command of a steamboat on the Congo River. As he travels deeper into the African wilderness, he hears unsettling tales of Mr. Kurtz, a mysterious ivory trader whose brilliance and ambition have descended into tyranny and madness. What Marlow finds at the end of his journey is not only Kurtz's fate—but a reflection of the darkness within humanity itself.

Conrad's haunting prose and psychological depth make this novella far more than an adventure tale. It is a profound critique of imperialism and a timeless exploration of power, greed, and the shadows of the human soul.

Still one of the most widely studied works of literature, Heart of Darkness remains as disturbing and relevant today as when it was first published.
