あらすじ・解説

A radical landmark in Caribbean literature, reissued with a new foreword by Jamaica Kincaid to mark Wilson Harris' centenary: this visionary masterpiece tracing the dreamlike voyage of a riverboat crew through the jungle defies definition 60 years on.

I dreamt I awoke with one dead seeing eye and one living closed eye....

A crew of men are embarking on a voyage up a turbulent river through the rainforests of Guyana. Donne, their wild, domineering leader, is obsessed with hunting for a mysterious woman and exploiting Indigenous people as plantation labour. But their expedition is plagued by tragedies, haunted by drowned ghosts: spectres of the crew themselves, inhabiting a blurred shadowland between life and death. As their journey into the interior—their own hearts of darkness—deepens, it assumes a spiritual dimension, guiding them towards a new destination: the Palace of the Peacock....

A modernist fever dream, hallucinatory prose poem, modern myth, elegy to victims of colonial conquest: Wilson Harris' visionary masterpiece has defied definition for over 60 years and is reissued for a new generation of listeners.
