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, and continues to be widely read and studied This edition, edited by one of the leading figures in ‘the Conrad controversy,’ includes an introduction and explanatory notes, as well as a fascinating variety of contemporary documents that help to set this extraordinary work in the context of the period from which it emerged. The introduction and bibliography have been updated, and two new appendices have been added; the second of these is a selection of Alice Harris’s extraordinary but little-known photographs documenting the horrors of colonialism in turn-of-the-century Congo. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

评分 评分康拉德似乎偏爱黑色，他的丛林小说都十分浓墨重彩，绝大部分情节要么发生在夜晚，要么在被树木和浓雾遮住了天光的昏暗白昼。如果说这两部小说的基调都是孤独，那么，《黑暗的心》更多是关于死亡与绝望，而《吉姆爷》则关于恐惧和逃避。对于这两部小说的主人公而言，欧洲意味着...
