“The earth seemed unearthly. We are accustomed to look upon the shackled form of a conquered monster, but there—there you could look at a thing monstrous and free. It was unearthly, and the men were—No, they were not inhuman. Well, you know, that was the worst of it—this suspicion of their not being inhuman. It would come slowly to one. They howled and leaped, and spun, and made horrid faces; but what thrilled you was just the thought of their humanity—like yours—the thought of your remote kinship with this wild and passionate uproar. Ugly. Yes, it was ugly enough; but if you were man enough you would admit to yourself that there was in you just the faintest trace of a response to the terrible frankness of that noise, a dim suspicion of there being a meaning in it which you—you so remote f...

连读两遍,这本书是要精读才可以领悟到一点点东西的。鬼魅般的气息,有如穿越迷雾,眼前似乎出现了汽船驶进丛林的画面。虽然早就知道这本小说要展示殖民主义的黑暗,但是没想到是以这样不可靠叙述的方式(中间还嵌套着他人的叙述)展示出来。文字精美,值得回味。土著女人张开双臂的形象让人印象深刻。

大三读小说真是囫囵吞枣,被我寄几气死嚯!现在大概知道怎么细读辽!第二遍要给康拉德五星!话说这种深渊式的阅读体验、隔层的叙述方式和造神模式或许得到了波拉尼奥的传承?而且小说里马洛觉得库尔茨完成了“一个道德上的胜利”,是不是有些纳粹文学的影子呢?

带着临时抱佛脚的想法读的,有点囫囵吞枣,好像有些地方没太看懂。但还是很精彩,语言真的是太漂亮了,被蛊到了。之后要进行一下文本细读。

啊看完了,好累!感觉被逼仄潮湿的雨林吞进去再吐出来一次🥲以及他看第一章的时候总觉得它的内核是反对殖民主义,然而他又展现出对库尔特着迷的追寻,认为他是一个道德上的胜利,又展现出一种暧昧不定的姿态。还有最后的“恐怖、恐怖”,白人的黑暗藏于洁白的朝圣者外表下,密林深处的黑暗则无所顾忌地在阴影中现出利爪,两种黑暗一起造成深不见底的漩涡,吞噬了每一个自恃光明使者的文明人。
