Imperialism

‘The hor­ror! The hor­ror!’. These are Kurtz’s final words in Joseph Con­rad’s ‘Heart of Dark­ness’, the sto­ry of a man who trav­els into the jun­gle to seek his for­tune and who instead finds an all-con­sum­ing moral and spir­i­tu­al wilder­ness. Con­rad’s endur­ing tale served as a touch­stone for many works of fic­tion inspired by its som­bre theme. This col­lec­tion also includes an addi­tion­al five of Con­rad’s best stories.
