Finally read it and now I finally get Apocalypse Now, really I should have read this years ago but it just seems like the world is steaming up this river now. (

A novella, rather than a novel. But one of the most devastating looks into the folly of colonialism ever penned. I would say this book was often aped, but never bettered. We embark on a voyage away from the clean seas, into the darkest, and most diseased parts of the continent, and the soul, intent on what happened to a man we once revered, and find out what has become of him, and of ourselves.

I had to read this book for an AP Lit class in high school and really just didn't enjoy it very much. I feel like most of the time was spent on a boat (if I remember correctly) and it was really dark and depressing. I'm not even sure that it's worth a two star review except that I can't really remember much of it at this point in time so I'm giving in the benefit of the doubt. (

Not my type of stories at all, depressing and weird. Though the last story "The Secret Sharer" shocked me by how good it was. It was intriguing and fascinating - Love It! (

This could have occurred nowhere but in England, where men and sea interpenetrate, so to speak - the sea entering into the life of most men, and the men knowing something or everything about the sea, in the way of amusement, of travel, or of bread-winning.
