malyn_maylyn 's review for:
Heart of Darkness
by Joseph Conrad
Whether or not Conrad intended to be racist, or if he was making a critique of racism via a racist narrator, doesn't matter. What matters is that it comes off as extremely racist: There is no outside form of reference, no other depiction of Africans, no hint aside from critique of European barbarism that racism is negative. At best, they come off as "noble savages" compared with the depraved machinations of Europeans. Coupled with the unbearably obvious metaphors, this was an awful book.
