| Summary | "My Kalulu, Prince, King and Slave: A Story of Central Africa" by Henry M. Stanley is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The narrative explores the experiences of Selim, the son of a noble Arab named Sheikh Amer, as he embarks on an expedition to Central Africa with a group of Arab traders. The story hints at themes of adventure, cultural encounters, and the dynamics of power and slavery in the context of the historical backdrop of the Arab presence in Africa. The opening of the book introduces Sheikh Amer and his beautiful wife, Amina, as they discuss their plans for an expedition to a land called Rua, driven by desires for wealth through ivory and slaves. Selim, eager to prove his manhood and join his father, is depicted as both impetuous and thoughtful, particularly in his conversations with Amina, who is torn between her love for her son and her fear for his safety. The vivid portrayals of characters and their relationships set the stage for an exploration of the complexities of family loyalty, adventure, and the moral implications of slavery in this historical narrative.
