'Surely this is a new refinement in cruelty...'

'Cut iron with iron, 
What makes iron valuable, 
Big kuku tree and big silk-cotton tree, 
Fari and Kaunju -' 
 
Told and retold since the fourteenth century, this West African epic chronicles the story of the mighty warrior who saves his people and founds an empire. 
 
One of 46 new books in the bestselling Little Black Classics series, to celebrate the first ever Penguin Classic in 1946. Each book gives readers a taste of the Classics' huge range and diversity, with works from around the world and across the centuries - including fables, decadence, heartbreak, tall tales, satire, ghosts, battles and elephants.

Olaudah Equiano (1745 - 1797) was a former slave who became an outspoken opponent of the slave trade.
