Heart of Darkness is very vague, yet full of detailed wordy paragraphs. One part that had me scratching my head is the moment before Kurtz dies. Kurtz suddenly yells out in a pained voice, “The Horror, The horror”! I wasn’t quite sure what it meant, but it sounded so profound that I felt there had to be some meaning in it. It dawned on me that Kurtz was reaching out to Marlow in his last moments and “the horror!” , fit perfectly with that. The horror of colonization! , the horror of death.
