Oroonoko

Aphra Behn,

About this book

Oroonoko, the grandson of an African king, is madly in love with Imoinda, the daughter of the king's general. When the king—who is also in love with Imoinda—catches wind of their affair, he sells Imoinda as a slave. This betrayal sets off a chain of events that carries unforeseen consequences for everybody involved.

Aphra Behn's Oroonoko has been hailed as one of the first great English novels and remains a classic of historical fiction. It was adapted for the stage in the play Oroonoko: A Tragedy, which debuted in 1695 and went on to become a massive success.
