Heart of Darkness and Other Stories

Hardbound in a collector's library-style, gold-embossed album are six audio cassettes of unabridged narrations of Conrad masterpieces: Heart of Darkness, the classic tale of adventure that inspired the makers of the film Apocalypse Now; The Secret Sharer, a masterful tale of indentity set against the hazards of being at sea; and The Lagoon, a Malayan story Conrad himself described as "a tricky thing with usual forests-river-stars-wind, sunrise, and so on - and lots of secondhand Conradese in it." Includes extensive liner notes on author and works.
