Over twenty years ago, Sven Lindqvist, one of the great pioneers of
a new kind of experiential history writing, set out across Central
Africa. Obsessed with a single line from Conrad's The Heart of
Darkness - Kurtz's injunction to 'Exterminate All the Brutes' - he
braided an account of his experiences with a profound historical
investigation, revealing to the reader with immediacy and
cauterizing force precisely what Europe's imperial powers had
exacted on Africa's peoples over the course of the preceding two
centuries. Shocking, humane, crackling with imaginative energies
and moral purpose, Exterminate All the Brutes stands as an
impassioned, timeless classic. It is essential reading for anybody
ready to come to terms with the brutal, racist history on which
Europe built its wealth.
