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. His subsequent works, many of which drew upon his sea experiences, include The Nigger of the "Narcissus" (1897), Lord Jim (1900), Nostromo (1904), The Secret Agent (1907), The Secret Sharer (1910), and Chance (1913). The man who was 21 before he spoke a word of English is now regarded as one of the superb English stylists of all time. Conrad died at his desk in 1924.
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.

评分被迫看得英文版的，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 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...
