HEART OF DARKNESS

Joseph Conrad had travelled to various parts of the world in his career as a sailor. His writings record his impressions of the voyages he had undertaken as an explorer. Heart of Darkness, his much celebrated novella, is an account of Marlow’s voyage to the Congo in the 1890’s and is based on Conrad’s own voyage to the interior of the Dark Continent, the process of colonisation, the exploitation of the black natives and the impact they had on the white men, who had ostensibly undertaken this mission to ‘civilise’ the saveges.
