Sobre el libro

Heart of Darkness is a novella by Joseph Conrad in which the sailor Charles Marlow recounts his journey into the African interior as a steamer captain, tasked with finding Kurtz, an ivory trader who has gone native far up the river. Widely regarded as a critique of European colonialism, it also examines power, morality, and the idea that there is little difference between the 'civilised' and the 'savage'. It has been widely republished and translated, and inspired Coppola's film Apocalypse Now.

Though he did not speak English fluently until his twenties, he became one of the greatest prose stylists in English literature, known for works such as Lord Jim set in nautical settings.
