He is credited with pioneering modernist literature and influencing generations of writers with his themes of existentialism, moral ambiguity, and the destructive effects of power. "Heart of Darkness" is Conrad's most famous work, a haunting tale of imperialism and the darkness within the human soul. Conrad's contributions to literature continue to be celebrated for their profound insights into the human condition and the complexities of the modern world.
