Oroonoko: This is a classic story about the horrors of slavery. It is about a Coromantien (Ghanaian) prince who, through his courage and integrity, acquires respect in his circle and even amongst the prisoners he takes in battle. The plot takes an unexpected turn when the white slave traders eventually take Oroonoko captive. Later he is sold into slavery in South America.

Aphra Behn was a prolific Restoration-era playwright and one of Englands first professional women writers. In 1663, she visited a Venezuelan sugar colony and met a slave trader, and what she saw there formed the basis for what is now her most famous work Oroonoko. Behn was a Catholic supporter and a Tory, a bisexual and a political spy.
