{"product_id":"heart-of-darkness-8","title":"Heart of Darkness","description":"This is a journey into the heart of Mr Kurtz - so sensitive, so civilized - who, at the savage centre of the jungle, sees into the darkness of himself, and dies -\n\n‘Did he live his life again in every detail of desire, temptation, and surrender during that supreme moment of complete knowledge?\nHe cried in a whisper at some image, at some vision - he cried out twice, a cry that was no more than a breath -\n\"The horror! The horror!\"’\n\nT.S. Eliot's use of this quotation from “The Heart of Darkness” as an epigraph to the original manuscript of “The Wasteland” was no doubt inspired by his belief that Mr Kurtz, the ambiguous hero of the story, stands at the dark heart of the twentieth century . . . \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Published 1973, Penguin Modern Classics. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Binding of book is intact.
