Doch schnell wird das Abenteuer zum Albtraum: Innerhalb der Mannschaft wütet das Tropenfieber, das Schiff gerät in eine Flaute und treibt tagelang nur noch im Kreis.

Es un cuento extenso o novela corta de 1899 del escritor polaco-británico Joseph Conrad, que aborda temas como el colonialismo, el choque de culturas, el racismo y la violencia humana. La traducción del título a la mayoría de las lenguas opta por la palabra «tinieblas» en vez de «oscuridad», que es la que se corresponde literalmente con darkness. Es quizá el trabajo más conocido de su autor.

Born Józef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski in 1857 in Poland, Joseph Conrad had a difficult childhood due to his family's involvement in Polish nationalism, which led to their persecution by the Russian authorities. Conrad started his career as a sailor and traveled extensively, which inspired his literary work. In 1895, he published his first novel "Almayer's Folly," which was followed by a string of successful works, including "Heart of Darkness," which was published in 1899.
