Re: Congo vs. Amazon
I think I voted Amazon cuz of the tidal bore but i retro switch my vote to the Congo because of Heart of Darkness. We have to weigh all.
Since I'm attaching Conrad to this, does anyone have a definitive author in mind who writes about the Amazon River specifically? I can't think of any.
Just Gabriel Garcia Marquez, who has a fantasy style that I would like to compare with the narrator's style in HoD.
Herzog's Fitzcarraldo and Aquirre, the Wrath of God as a film supplement.
Congo wins.
Or should we add to the Poll,
Conquistadors of the Americas VS The Scramble for Africa ?
