Analyzing Conrad by Rit is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Heart of Darkness is a 1899 novella by Joseph Conrad about a voyage up the Congo River into the Congo Free State in Africa. It is told through the eyes of Marlow and is considered a seminal work of English literature that deals with themes of imperialism, colonialism, and the dark side of human nature. While praised for its insights into European imperialism in Africa, it has also been criticized for its dehumanizing depictions of African people.
