Heart of Darkness: Based on Conrad's own 1890 trip up the Congo River, the story is told by Marlow, the novelist's alter ego. It is the journey into darkness and horror, both literally, as the narrator descends into a sinister jungle landscape, and metaphorically, as he witnesses the depts of moral depravity symbolized by the agent Kurtz. The Secret Sharer: The tale of a young sea captain's first command as he sails into the Gulf of Siam, and into an encounter with his "double," the Jungian shadow self of the unconscious mind. |
