Oroonoko altissima rappresentazione letteraria della figura dell’himbo che afferra un’anguilla elettrica a mani nude senza motivo solo per dimostrare di poterlo fare e poi viene ricoverato d’urgenza quasi muore ma lui è felice di aver toccato l’anguilla — questa la mia importantissima analisi accademica del sottotesto
