What reading level is Heart of Darkness And the Congo Diary book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In this brief essay, I will explore the connections between Conrad’s portrayal of Africa in Heart of Darkness and a number of films released in just the past few years: Hotel Rwanda (2004), The Constant Gardener (2005), Tsotsi (2005), The Last King of Scotland (2006), and Blood Diamond (2006).
In three films featuring major Hollywood stars released within the last three years, the story of Africa has continued to be told through the viewpoint primarily of white characters from the “West.” Each o...ffers a skeptical look at whether change can really occur, often exploring the possibility through distinct portrayals of gender. In The Constant Gardener, a tale primarily of corporate greed in Africa, Ralph Fiennes’s diplomat Justin Quayle at first rejects and then ultimately embraces the forceful efforts of his activist wife Tessa (Rachel Weisz) to uncover the exploitation of Africans by a fictional European pharmaceutical company. In The Last King of Scotland, James McAvoy’s Scottish doctor Nicholas Garrigan is starstruck and largely oblivious to the violent tactics of his employer Idi Amin while his friend Sarah Merrit, a doctor’s wife herself, works diligently and quietly to provide proper care to a small village.
