any who, I was looking at the lists of prompts that were given for Beauvoir and Conrad and number five instantly grabbed me “is Marlowe racist” I didn’t realize we would have the option of writing about Christopher Marlowe, how exciting.

But does that make Marlowe racist or simply a product of his time like our friend Isabella Thorpe – that is up to you!
