Read Heart of Darkness through the paragraph that begins "He began to speak as soon as he saw me" and ends with "Afterwards I took it back when it was borne in upon me startlingly with what extreme nicety he had estimated the time requisite for the "affair."Pay close attention to the use of irony when Conrad describes the white "in charge" people. The words say one thing, but we should hear the sarcasm/irony underneath. Mark every use of irony that you see.
