Description
'Robinson Crusoe' by Daniel Defoe is the celebrated adventure novel of a young Englishman whose determination to pursue a life at sea leads him into shipwreck and years of isolation on a remote island. Stranded with limited supplies, Crusoe must learn to build shelter, cultivate food, make tools and survive through ingenuity and perseverance. His solitude is later disrupted by the arrival of Friday, whose presence transforms his isolated existence and introduces new questions of friendship, culture and power. First published in 1719, the novel combines adventure with reflections on survival, religion, self-reliance, colonialism and the relationship between human beings and the natural world, and is widely regarded as one of the foundational works of the English novel.
