Set against the backdrop of the Belgian Congo in the late 19th century, Heart of Darkness tells the story of Charles Marlow, a steamboat captain tasked with venturing up the Congo River to find the enigmatic and notorious ivory trader, Kurtz. As Marlow makes his way deeper into the heart of the African continent, he confronts the brutal realities of imperialism and the dark, primal forces that lie within us all.
Narrated by a talented voice actor, this audiobook will transport you to the heart of Africa, immersing you in Conrad's haunting prose and vivid descriptions of the jungle landscape.

Joseph Conrad
Joseph Conrad (1857–1924) und Ford Madox Ford (1873–1939) gehören zu den bedeutendsten Erzählern der modernen Literatur des 20. Jahrhunderts. In seinen vielschichtigen, auch vieldeutigen Romanen und Erzählungen knüpfte Conrad oft an die Erfahrungen seiner Seemannsjahre an. Die Romane von Ford Madox Ford haben an Wertschätzung in den letzten Jahrzehnten ständig zugenommen und gelten heute ebenfalls als Klassiker; er arbeitete viel und eng mit Joseph Conrad zusammen, mit dem er mehrere Bücher verfasste.
