2.Heart of Darkness is a frame story. Identify EVERY time there is a shift between the original narrator and Marlow who narrates most of the story.

3. Conrad often reverses the traditional symbolism of black and white. Find two examples where he uses the traditional symbolism and four examples where white is evil and black is good.
