i just finished "The Heart of Darkness"

its a good book and very poetic.
Its all about Belgium colonialism in the Congo. (and other stuff)
i highly recomend it if you like that sort of book. k:
I also finished it just a week ago, as my girlfriend bought it for me and urged to read it. It is a fine one, with an atmosphere you can cut with a machete. The language is very rich, and it's hard to believe the author wasn't an English native speaker.

In case there's someone unaware of it, this is the book Apocalypse Now! is loosely based on.
