This study argues that Conrad portrays Marlow and his relationships with a psychological depth that is unsurpassed in literature. In Youth, Heart of Darkness and Lord Jim, he is a continuously-evolving character whose thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are expressions of his personality and experience.
