Heart of Darkness and The Secret Sharer pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
Conrad was born on 12/3/1857, in a part of Russia that had once belonged to Poland. His parents were members of the landed gentry, but as ardent Polish patriots they suffered considerably for their political views. Orphaned at 11, Conrad attended school in Cracow but concluded that there was no future for him in occupied Poland, and at 16 he left forever. The sea was Conrad's love and career for the next 20 years; in the British merchant navy, he rose finally to captain, sailing to Australia and Borneo and surviving at least one shipwreck. In 1890 he became captain of a Congo River steamer, but this led only to disillusionment and ill health and this would become the basis for Conrad's masterpiece, Heart of Darkness. Reluctantly leaving the merchant service, he settled in England and completed his first novel, Almayer's Folly, already begun at sea.

Heart of Darkness is a novella by Joseph Conrad. Before publication, it appeared in a three-part series in Blackwood's Magazine (1899). This highly symbolic story is actually a story within a story, or frame tale, following a man named Charlie Marlow, as he recounts his adventure to a group of men, onboard a ship anchored in the Thames Estuary, at dusk and continuing into the evening. It details an incident earlier in Marlow's life when he, an Englishman, takes a foreign assignment as a ferry boat captain on what readers can assume is the Congo River in the Belgian owned Congo Free State; the name of the country is never specified in the text. Though his job is to transport ivory downriver, Marlow quickly develops an intense interest in investigating Kurtz, an ivory procurement agent in the employment of the government. Kurtz's reputation extends throughout the region.
Publisher Comments:
Heart Of Darkness. The story of the civilized, enlightened Mr. Kurtz who embarks on a harrowing "night journey" into the savage heart of Africa, only to find his dark and evil soul. The Secret Sharer. The saga of a young, inexperienced skipper forced to decide the fate of a fugitive sailor who killed a man in self-defense. As he faces his first moral test the skipper discovers a terrifying truth — and comes face to face with the secret itself. Heart Of Darkness and The Secret Sharer draw on actual events and people that Conrad met or heard about during his many far-flung travels. In portraying men whose incredible journeys on land and at sea are also symbolic voyages into their own mysterious depths, these two masterful works give credence to Conrad's acclaim as a major psychological writer.

读后感
被迫看得英文版的，别的不好说，就是挺崇拜康拉德的，都30多了开始学英语还能拿英语写作当作家，无疑给吾辈打了一针强心针，让我觉得我又有希望了。。。“文明人”，“野蛮人”，文明的播种者还是野蛮的殖民者，这些问题太老套了又太尖锐了，作为一个第三世界的女人，想这些我...
评分康拉德似乎偏爱黑色，他的丛林小说都十分浓墨重彩，绝大部分情节要么发生在夜晚，要么在被树木和浓雾遮住了天光的昏暗白昼。如果说这两部小说的基调都是孤独，那么，《黑暗的心》更多是关于死亡与绝望，而《吉姆爷》则关于恐惧和逃避。对于这两部小说的主人公而言，欧洲意味着...

评分黑暗深处有什么？这是个很恐怖的问题，谁知道黑暗深处会有什么？也许什么都没有，也许有美好的东西，也许是可怕的东西，因为看不到，所以一切都有可能，但是很奇怪，对这黑暗中的千万种可能总是下意识的觉得是不祥的所在。 约瑟夫·康拉德以及他的这本《黑暗深处》保...
用户评价
郁郁葱葱的腹地，遮蔽天地的原始森林，危险的河流，黑暗之心。
评分在20世纪初的文坛恐怕从未见过这样的主题和写作手法。氤氲潮湿的刚果丛林里殖民主义的罪恶，黑与白的强烈对比，充满神秘色彩的原始气息，挥之不去的窃窃私语，黑暗深处难以参透的重重迷雾……整个故事笼罩在一种压抑的混沌之中。一个寻找kurtz的小小悬念贯穿始终，情节再简单不过，但是叙述却枝蔓缠绕，阻滞着读着前进的脚步。主题与文字相得益彰，共同构成一幅魔幻狂野阴暗潮湿的异域图景。这不是一部能用“思想主题”来解读的小说，而只能是一种体验过程，是为现代主义的先驱。
评分a rare and weird beauty
