A review by emilineb
Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad

2.0

2.5. This book is highly quoted, referenced, revered and all that, it was a book I was supposed to read during my degree (oopsies), and I get why but also I don’t. This was confusing and boring and felt like it dragged on even though it was so short. I’m sure there are more philosophies and observations within this book than I noticed which have given it the reputation it has, but I’m sorry to say that as someone who has studied literature, this flopped for me.
