HEY ♥ So as most of you know already, I'm Annay, one of your moddydoddies. QNNG yosuke is the FAAAAAAAAAAR more adept one but between the two of us, we'll keep everyting in line. ANYWAY, to kind of ease ourselves into this whole thing, I think it'd be super to kind of get a feel for what we all like to read. So I've concocted a meme with this handy little form, which you can definitely fill out and...etc. etc. you get the point. All of the rules still apply so make sure you read them before doing anything nasty, otherwise we'll...get you. ...Despite the fact that we're not threatening at all.

<b>HI I'M...</b> what is your name, young padawan? <b>FAVORITE BOOK(S) |</b> list 'em here! <b>FAVORITE AUTHOR(S) |</b> list 'em here! <b>ETC. |</b> other related/unrelated things go here. 8)

OKAY, LET'S HAVE SOME FUN ♥

Oh, and a pimp code if you want!

fjkajf;jkadsj;f sorry orz.

it is... pretty good... I guess I was kinda too harsh orz. the symbolism is really interesting! I actually kinda liked... the white/black contrasts that were kinda prevalent throughout the novel.... plus the bits on imperialism were interesting! my fav character was marlow's aunt hahaha.

why did you like it??

[allegory]

Hmm, I'm not really sure! I liked the whole idea, I guess. Kurtz was this guy who was supposed to be this cultured, amazing genius and yet he was so corrupted by the wilderness and did all this insane stuff just so he could stay there, even while dying. "The horror! The horror!" There are a lot of lines that randomly stick out for me, too, with imagery about the river and stuff. Obviously I've never been to the Congo, but it was so vivid in my head that I felt like I was there, almost.

I haven't read it in a while, though, so a lot of the finer details are a little fuzzy for me. |D
