Essay idea

For my Heart of Darkness essay I want to discuss Marlow's conscious vs. unconscious state of mind. I would talk about the reader's reactions as well as Freud, Conrad, and Karl's interpretation of Marlow's state of mind and how this effects the readers perception of Marlow's journey. The essay would discuss the how different views of different authors mix with Marlow's unconscious dreamstate's effectivenness throughout the book.
