2nd body paragraph

Marlow travels through a psychological journey, and this experience is like a nightmare with no consequences .  Marlow is deeply emotionally effected by the trauma he experiences.  The outcome is similar to a soldier suffering with post traumatic stress disorder.  He is unconsciously  drawn toward Kurtz.  Kurtz has a brutal and predatory nature, and he maintains an uncaring nature.  He is selfish and does not care about the effects of his actions towards others.  Marlow is from Victorian England and is not used to this type of person, but Marlow's inner darkness causes him to uncounsiously desire to become like the more free willed Kurtz.  Marlow secretly wishes he did not care about the well being of others.
