    This was first assigned to me as summer reading before my senior year in high school. I got enough out my premier pass at it to be able to ace the test, but unaccompanied reading is NOT the way to experience this amazing work by Conrad.

From the journey through its influence into modern literature (like T.S. Eliot's superb "Hollow Men"), this book is iconic.
