A former girlfriend gave me Heart of Darkness as a gift. It was her favorite book. I had wanted to read it ever since I had seen Apocalypse Now.
Well, it just so happened that when I finally got around to reading the book, we broke up. Things ended badly, and I packed away all the stuff that she had given me-the very few things.
Recently, I was craving a book to read, and picked Heart of Darkness up again. I started to read it again. I soon remembered there were other reasons I put the book down in the first place.
I just can't get into this book. I absolutely bores the hell out of me. I guess I'm just a brat for more modern literature.
Screw it, I'm going to the bookstore and picking up Cat's Cradle!
