The novella written by Joseph Conrad, (Polish-British writer - 1857 - 1924) is 78 pages long. Conrad manages to evoke multiple themes in this densely packed novella. ''Joseph Conrad's most read novella Heart of Darkness has double meaning in its title. One dictionary meaning is that the title refers to the interior of the Africa called Congo. Another hidden meaning is, the title stands for the darkness or the primitiveness that every person possesses in his or her mind and heart.''
