Reading Oroonoko, The Rover, and Other Works | Alexandria
Read Oroonoko, The Rover, and Other Works by Aphra Behn. Shattering gender norms, Behn's revolutionary texts expose how power, race, and desire collide in ways that still unsettle us today. Her radical notion that colonialism corrupts both oppressor and oppressed challenged 17th century assumptions - and our own comfortable narratives about progress and morality.
