Youth is heard through the voice of Charles Marlow, an apperant deckhand on the Judea.
In the begining, Marlow starts his story of the first time to the East. He is appointed as the Second mate of the ship. The ship he is now sailing on (Judea) is alot different from the clippers that he sailed on before, according to his new skipper. Marlow is especially interested in the saying on the ship's hull: Do or Die. Marlow begins his journey to Bankok from England.
So far, this book is actually somewhat interesting, possibly because its a challanging read for me. i do plan on reading a bit more before i go to bed or tomorrow. I know there is a ton to read if i'm planning on reading all of Marlow's adventures in Heart of Darkness, Chance and End of the thether. I think i especially want to finish this one off because i know we're doing Heart of Darkness in class and i know it wouldn't hurt to have a back story to that.

Reaction could be developed quite a bit. What do you think of the characters, the author's writing style, etc.
