SYNOPSIS
Generally regarded as the pre-eminent work of Conrad''s shorter fiction, Heart of Darkness is a chilling tale of horror which, as the author intended, is capable of many interpretations. Set in the Congo during the period of rapid colonial expansion in the 19th century, the story deals with the highly disturbing effects of economic, social and political exploitation of European and African societies and the cataclysmic behaviour this induced in some individuals. The other two stories in this book - Youth and The End of the Tether - concern the sea and those who sail upon it, a genre in which Conrad reigns supreme.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Joseph Conrad
Joseph Conrad, aliás Józef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski, nasce na Ucrânia em 1857, em plena autocracia dos Czars. Filho de um casal polaco no exílio, fica órfão muito cedo. É criado e educado pelo tio, o responsável por aquela que seria a paixão central da sua vida: o mar. Viaja para Marselha em 1874, prestando serviço a bordo de navios mercantes franceses antes de finalmente se juntar à tripulação de um navio inglês, no ano de 1878. Em 1886 obtém nacionalidade britânica e o Certificado de Mestre no Serviço Mercantil Britânico. Oito anos mais tarde abandona o mar para se dedicar à escrita, publicando o seu primeiro romance - 'Almayer's Folly', em 1895. Continua a escrever e a publicar até à data da sua morte em 1924. Conrad é autor, entre outras obras, de Lord Jim (1900), Nostromo (1904), The Secret Agent (1907), Under Western Eyes (1911), Heart of Darkness, Coração das Trevas, 1902). É hoje considerado um dos maiores escritores de ficção em inglês, a sua terceira língua.
