About this listen
Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness is one of the most influential works ever written in literature and a deeply unsettling read more than a century on. A scathing criticism of the corrupted European imperialism, the novel tells about Marlow's journey to the remote regions in Africa, up the Congo river, to find Kurtz, the best agent of a company trading ivory. Getting in touch with the exuberant and unrestrained nature of Africa, Marlow's experience becomes a journey back to the beginning of creation, a trip to the darkest parts of the human mind, “down” to repressed and unlawful desires.
This version contains explanatory notes, suitable for non-native readers, step-by-step comprehension activities for each salient section of the book and an overview of the novel that helps the readers explore the cultural aspect associated with the story and understand its deep meanings.
