About the Book

Le capitaine Marlowe voulait une mission. Oui, une mission qui lui permettrait de se reconstruire et d'échapper à son passé crépusculaire. Remonter le cadavre de Kurtz à la source du fleuve pour l'enterrer bien loin des colons bien pensants. Mais le voyage se transforme en une hallucinante descente aux enfers. La jungle, implacable et impassible regarde Marlowe, Conrad et les passagers s'enfoncer dans l'absurdité de leurs contradictions. Après Au Coeur des Ténèbres et Apocalypse Now, voici la dernière incarnation du voyage de Marlowe inspirée par le pamphlet de Joseph Conrad contre les horreurs de la colonisation. -- 1857: Naissance de Joseph Conrad (Józef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski) à Berdichev en Ukraine (auparavant partie de la Pologne). -- 1874: Conrad quitte sa Pologne natale à l'adolescence pour éviter la conscription dans l'armée russe. Il part pour Marseille, où il s'engage comme apprenti sur un voilier. Il rejoint la marine marchande française et comme Arthur Rimbaud s'improvise trafiquant d'armes. Il s'embarque ensuite à bord de navires britanniques, fait apprentissage de l'anglais avec ses camarades marins. Il devient Capitaine, et sert plus de seize ans avant qu'un événement ne l'incite à passer à l'écriture. -- 1890: Il décroche un poste de capitaine sur un steamer pour la Société du Haut-Congo officiant dans l'État indépendant du Congo. Il ne fait qu'un seul aller-retour sur le Congo avant d'être rapatrié en Europe pour dysenterie. -- 1894: Retour à Londres où il débarque, pour la dernière fois, sa carrière maritime est terminée. -- 1899: Conrad publie Au Coeur des Ténèbres, un pamphlet crépusculaire sur le cauchemar de la colonisation au Congo. Conrad a été reconnu comme le romancier le plus puissant, perspicace, et inquiétant de son époque.
