Based on Conrad's own experiences captaining a ship, the narrator, Charles Marlow recites his tale of a voyage up the Congo River and those he meets - natives, a mysterious Russian and the menacing yet fascinating Mr Kurtz. Marlow is so horrified by his discoveries that he is all but ready to abandon so called civilisation. Flying High Press believes in making classic literature available to all, inclusive of reading disability or vision impairment. This edition is printed in large dyslexia-friendly font."Now when I was a little chap I had a passion for maps. I would look for hours at South America, or Africa, or Australia, and lose myself in all the glories of exploration. At that time there were many blank spaces on the earth, and when I saw one that looked particularly inviting on a map (but they all look that) I would put my finger on it and say, 'When I grow up I will go there."
