📱 eBook en inglés HEART OF DARKNESS

"The mind of man is capable of anything—because everything is in it, all the past as well as all the future."
Charles Marlow, a seafaring wanderer, takes a job as a steamboat captain for a Belgian trading company in the African interior. His mission: to find and retrieve Kurtz, a legendary ivory agent who has reportedly gone mad and established himself as a god-like figure among the local tribes. As Marlow steams deeper into the "lurk of the jungle," the physical journey becomes a psychological odyssey. He discovers that the true "darkness" lies not in the wilderness, but in the hearts of the "civilized" men who seek to conquer it.
A Masterpiece of Modernism: Conrads prose is thick with atmosphere and moral ambiguity. He strips away the romanticism of Victorian adventure to reveal the hollow greed of the ivory trade. Through the enigmatic figure of Kurtz and his final, whispered cry—"The horror! The horror!"—the novella forces a confrontation with the darkness inherent in absolute power and the collapse of traditional morality.
The Influence of an Icon: Few works have left such a permanent mark on culture, serving as the direct inspiration for the cinematic epic Apocalypse Now. Heart of Darkness remains a vital, controversial, and essential critique of imperialism and a timeless study of the human psyche under extreme pressure.
