Exploring the psychological depths of humanity, the narrative follows steamboat captain Charlie Marlow's journey up the Congo River to find Kurtz, an ivory company agent revered by the local tribes. Set against the backdrop of colonial Africa, the story contrasts the "civilized" European world with the primal realities of the jungle, prompting reflections on good, evil, and the darkness within. Initially overlooked, this profound work has gained acclaim as one of the most significant literary analyses of civilization and savagery.
