The History of Literature

637 From the Archives - Heart of Darkness (with Mike Palindrome) | My Last Book with Fred Waitzkin

Listen Later

We asked, you answered! In response to a listener recommendation, we revisit a conversation from 2017 in which Mike and Jacke discuss Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness, Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now, and Eleanor Coppola's Hearts of Darkness. PLUS novelist Fred Waitzkin (Searching for Bobby Fisher, Anything Is Good) stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read.


Enjoy this? Try these from our archive:

  • 110 Heart of Darkness - Then and Now
  • 619 Fred Waitzkin on Kerouac, Hemingway, and His New Novel
  • 505 Ford Madox Ford (with Max Saunders)
