In our sixty-first episode, we finally cover the most glaring omission on the show: Joseph Conrad's 1899 pre-modernism Imperial Gothic novella, <em>Heart of Darkness</em>. We close the circuit on our <em>Things Fall Apart</em> episode from S2 and get a cool International Man of Mystery sting which can sadly never be used in another episode.</p><p><br></p><p>Cover art © Catherine Wu.</p><p><br></p><p>Episode Theme: Karol Szymanowski, 'Nocturne and Tarantella, Op. 28', 1915.</p><p><br></p>","author_name":"Abigail Boucher and Daniel Jenkin-Smith"}
