Today i finished Heart of Darkness. One word: wow.... What an awesome book. I just love the way Conrad writes. The words he uses...mmmmm
( Read more... )
granted i read it my junior year... but it was so... conrad just seemed so condescending in his writing. "yeah, i only learned english when i was 27 but i can still use bigger words than you."
maybe i just need to read it again; without the influence of my high school friends.
well, it wasn't just the words that he used, but the way he used them. The atomosphere he created with words. It just made me happy. and yes, i recommend you read it again. High school friends can be very detrimental to one's enjoyment of the finer things in life.
