Book Review of Heart of Darkness and Selected Short Fiction

Heart of Darkness and Selected Short Fiction
reviewed on + 4 more book reviews


I bought this primarily for the short fiction, but Conrad's prose is so unlike anyone else's. Like Nabokov, his multi-lingual talents render his English a lyrical shade that is completely unique. His prose was copied so much that we tend to forget that.
