Heart of Carkness
HTML1DocumentEncodingutf-8"Mistah" Kurtz, in Heart of Darkness, is one of
Korzeniowski's revenants: "He rose, unsteady, long, pale, indistinct like a vapour exhaled
by the earth, and swayed slightly, misty and silent before me" (64). Kurtz originates in the
"misseds" of time--after the brief attack by the natives, Marlow concludes that Kurtz is
now missing-- "vanished"--and confesses, in his most intimate moment, that his sorrow at
this thought "had a startling extravagance of emotion."

across the room, and disappear. There were two of these noiseless nursing nuns.
