Heart of Darkness (1899) is a short novel by Polish novelist
Joseph Conrad, written as a frame narrative, about Charles
Marlow\'s experience as an ivory transporter down the Congo
River in Central Africa. The story is a complex exploration of
the attitudes people hold on what constitutes a barbarian versus
a civilized society and the attitudes on colonialism and racism
that were part and parcel of European imperialism. In 1998, the
Modern Library ranked Heart of Darkness as the sixty-seventh of
the hundred best novels in English of the twentieth century.
Characters: 23. Amazon rating: 4 stars. Genre: Fiction.
