Kongo - De duistere reis van Józef Theodor Konrad Korzeniowski #[nn]

Rendered in brooding charcoal tones by Tom Tirabosco, this 2014 Scratch Books graphic novel follows the dark journey of Józef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski — the man the world would come to know as Joseph Conrad — into the heart of the Congo. The cover draws you in immediately: a bearded, weathered figure dominates the foreground while twisted trees and a solitary structure loom in the misty background, perfectly evoking a world of shadow and unease. Written by Christian Perrissin, Kongo promises an atmospheric plunge into one of history's most morally haunting voyages.
