Came from Instagram and stayed for the literature! I can say I was not disappointed. So glad I discovered this. Thank you for sharing.

It’s a difficult book to grasp from almost every perspective. Conrad doesn’t hand you simple answers. One of his is one of my favorite novels of all called “Nostromo”. Very powerful.

Instagram suggested me your page and your writings inspired me to start writing and analysing the literature that I read again. Thank you.

Very interesting read. This has made me think of the movie Apocalypse Now. I never knew it was loosely based off of Conrads book. I now have a better understanding of the movie after reading this and will have to get Conrads book to go more into it. I'll also have to watch the movie again with a better idea of it than I had before. Thanks for putting this out there.

Thanks for reading! I’ve heard of Apocalypse Now and it’s connections with Conrad’s work, but to my shame I haven’t yet seen the movie. Very interested to see the connections

Loved it! The art chosen was haunting as well, along with that great darkness in which we all must eventually look to.
