This handsome gift edition presents Joseph Conrad's celebrated work, Heart of Darkness, featuring striking gold-embossed cover designs, gilded page edges and patterned endpapers. The inspiration behind Apocalypse Now, Heart of Darkness tells the story of Charlie Marlowe, who takes a steamboat on a voyage into the heart of Africa. His mission is to relieve an ivory agent named Kurtz, who has been taken ill at a remote trading station. Marlowe's eyes are opened wide as he witnesses acts of cruelty on his journey and when he meets Kurtz, he is forced to examine his own values and views of huma.
