Joseph Conrad's haunting Modernist masterpiece, now in the beautifully designed Penguin Clothbound Classics seriesHeart of Darkness has been considered for most of this century as a literary classic, and also a powerful indictment of the evils of imperialism. It reflects the savage repressions carried out in the Congo by the Belgians in one of the largest acts of genocide committed up to that time.
