As he travels upriver, Marlow confronts scenes of cruelty, exploitation, and the slow unraveling of European order in the wilderness. Each bend of the river draws him closer to Kurtz and to the chilling realization that the line between civilization and savagery is perilously thin. When he finally encounters Kurtz-both revered and feared-Marlow faces the disturbing truth about humanity’s capacity for darkness.First published in 1899, Heart of Darkness is a cornerstone of modern literature and one of the most searing critiques of European colonialism. Joseph Conrad’s novella strips away the illusions of empire, exposing its violence, hypocrisy, and moral decay. Its psychological intensity and exploration of power influenced generations of writers, from T. S. Eliot to Chinua Achebe, securing its place as a timeless classic.
