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 tried to read the original english text but I just could not understand it. It was the most difficult text I had and have read!!!

Why don't you try Chinua Achebe's (pronounced Achaba)Things Fall Apart. It is a very good novel on the pre- and post-colonial lifestyle of the lower Niger tribes. Although it sounds hard to read , it is a very
"digestible" book.
