I got my books for school today. My World Literature professor looks to be a twisted sort, reading list:

Heart of Darkness
God of Small Things
One Hundred Years of Solitude
The Bone People
... and one other I can't recall.

This is gonna be cheery.

I adored Heart of Darkness when I read it in high school. I imagine some of the charm has probably worn off.

Here's a quote that you may be amused by: "Mr. Conrad has paid us a pretty compliment by learning to write the English language correctly, and the journalists are so pleased that they have assigned him a place in our literature." -- George Moore

Oh, how... turn of the century of them! I am most amused!
