Heart of Darkness tells of the conflicting drives of two men-Charles Marlow, the captain of a steamboat, and Mr. Kurtz, a mysterious figure who oversees a trading post in Africa. After an arduous journey, Marlow finally encounters Kurtz, and the men come to grips with their differences-and their similarities. Joseph Conrad's most famous work is a searing tale of one of the strangest and most memorable voyages ever taken-a journey to the heart of a geographical and psychological wilderness from which no one returns unscarred. For this isn't simply a journey up an uncharted river into a geographical wilderness; rather, it's a trip deep into our collective subconscious.
