Earth-Spirit, Wedekind
Pygmalion, by Shaw
Novels:

>tfw no dark skinned black girl from France to sip coffee and discuss literature and plays while sitting outside at a cafe that leads to light flirting and then to making passionate love in your salon before lunch after which you spend the afternoon writing your magnum opus before stargazing in the cool spring air while walking along a quiet tree-lined avenue
Why live?

Europe is literally the most homogenous continent on earth. There are more white people in Africa, than black people in Europe. Most countries in Europe are 85% - 95% black. We don't make a big deal about it, but that's mainly because there's so few of them that there's no point.
