• Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness: A Critical Study . New Delhi : Atlantic Publishers and Distributors, 2005.

One of the most important canonical texts of British literature Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness has continued to elicit varied and contrary critical responses since its first publication in 1902. The present study, one in the series of Atlantic Critical Studies , attempts to make a close reading of the novel, and examines its various aspects with lucidity and profundity, never losing, however, the touch with the reality of the academic needs of the students of English literature.
