Es un cuento extenso o novela corta de 1899 del escritor polaco-británico Joseph Conrad, que aborda temas como el colonialismo, el choque de culturas, el racismo y la violencia humana. La traducción del título a la mayoría de las lenguas opta por la palabra «tinieblas» en vez de «oscuridad», que es la que se corresponde literalmente con darkness. Es quizá el trabajo más conocido de su autor.
