The African prince Oroonoko and his beloved, Imoinda, find themselves betrayed and Imoinda sold into slavery after Oroonoko's grandfather, the king, also falls in love with the beautiful woman. Although they are eventually reunited, events conspire against Oroonoko and Imoinda, and the pair is again tragically separated -- this time by Oroonoko's own hand.

Published shortly before author Aphra Behn's death, Oroonoko is considered to be one of the first English novels to be published, and is often recognized as a critique of slavery.
