This setting provides the frame for Marlows story of his obsession with the ivory trader Kurtz, which enables Conrad to create a parallel between what Conrad calls \"the greatest town on earth\", London, and Africa as places of darkness.Central to Conrads work is the idea that there is little difference between \"civilised people\" and those described as \"savages\"; Heart of Darkness raises questions about imperialism and racism.Heart of Darkness has been widely re-published and translated into many languages. It provided the inspiration for Francis Ford Coppolas 1979 film Apocalypse Now.
