Heart of Darkness - Conrad, Joseph; Goonetilleke, D.C.R.A.

Clean, tight, unmarked; slight wear to inside corners; otherwise absolute minimal wear appears unread; The story of Marlow travelling upriver in central Africa to find Kurtz, an ivory agent as consumed by the horror of human life as he is by physical illness, has long been considered a classic. Carefully situating Heart of Darkness within its historical, political, cultural, and racial contexts, this edition offers a bold and intelligent introduction to its aesthetic and philosophical challenges, gives an excitingly useful chronology of the Congo with excerpts from Congo exploration literature.
