An influential seventeenth-century fable, by a pathbreaking woman writer, about the fall of a black prince.
The first woman in England to make her living by writing, Aphra Behn (1640-1689) combines memoir, exotic travel narrative, and romance to tell the story of the noble Oroonoko, a black man who begins life as a prince and ends it as a slave. The tale depicts the overthrow of a hero by a civilization that considers itself superior to him."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
