Status Updates From El corazón de las tinieblas

Every re-read, you quickly learn how much this man loves his metaphors and synonyms.

I feel as though the beginning of this book was interesting since Conrad had done a fine job at writing the ocean and the life of a man at sail. Then we welcome the main character to a land of colonization and the white man along with slavery. Although not explicitly stated. I just think Conrad at this point in time has nothing to say and progress the story and causes me to lose interest in his silly words.
