Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Charlie Marlow serves as a compelling narrator in several of Joseph Conrad's works, including "Youth," "Heart of Darkness," "Lord Jim," and "Chance." He embodies a blend of the ordinary and the profound, often perceived as an average pilgrim or a wandering figure. This unique perspective allows Conrad to explore complex themes of adventure, morality, and the human condition, as Marlow's journeys reveal deeper insights into life and society. Through his experiences, readers are invited to reflect on the nature of existence and the darkness within humanity.
