Your Strength Is Just An Accident Arising From The Weakness Of Others. Polish-Born English Novelist Joseph Conrads Powerful And Controversial Novella, Heart Of Darkness, Was First Published In Serialized Form In 1899 In Blackwoods Magazine. Set Mainly In The Belgian Congo, The Novella Explores The Debilitating Impact Of Colonization On The Colonizer And The Colonized. The Unreliable Narrator Of The Story, English Sailor Charles Marlow Is Hired By A Belgian Company To Captain A Steamer In The Newly Established Congo Free State. Intrigued By Rumours About Another Company Employee Named Kurtz, Who Is Said To Be Posted In The Interior, Marlow Sails Upriver In Search Of Him. During The Journey And In His Encounter With Kurtz, Marlow Gets To See The Barren Darkness Of Mens Hearts And The Horror And Brutality Colonizers Have Unleashed On The African Heartland. Many Post-Colonial Writers Such As Chinua Achebe Have Criticized The Racist Overtones Of Conrads Portrayal Of African Culture And Society. The Novella Also Inspired Francis Ford Copollas Epic Vietnam War Film, Apocalypse Now (1979).
