Heart of Darkness
Marlow, a ferry-boat captain on foreign assignment in the Congo, searches for the legendary and feared Mr. Kurtz, unprepared for what he will find. On his journey he encounters the darkness of the wilderness; the darkness of colonization, and ultimately, the darkness within every man. Heart of Darkness is a powerful indictment of the evils of imperialism.
The Secret Sharer
The Secret Sharer by Joseph Conrad is a well-loved story about morality and self-discovery. The story of the nameless captain is told as he takes charge of a new ship in the early 20th century and finds a stowaway on board. The captain finds himself drawn to the stowaway as he learns more about him, and the two develop a bizarre bond that tests the captain's morality. The captain must determine how to respond as the plot develops and face his own identity.
