- Abstract:
- Argues that the way in which Marlow is presented, ensures that Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" is vulnerable as a text that ostensibly helps justify the maintenance of separate spheres between men and women; argues that Marlow's successful agency is more about his being craftily evasive, a man who doesn't impose but dodges.
