| |  | | | In Brief
A shipwrecked survivor is washed up on a deserted island, where he lives alone until he rescues a savage. Naming the man Friday, the two continue their lonely existence until they leave for England. Crusoe's tale spans 28 years and is probably based on the true story of Alexander Selkirk, who lived on a deserted island for five years.
| | | | From The Publisher
Who has not dreamed of life on an exotic isle, far away from civilization? Here is the novel which has inspired countless imitations by lesser writers, none of which equal the power and originality of Defoe's famous book. Robinson Crusoe, set ashore on an island after a terrible storm at sea, is forced to make do with only a knife, some tobacco, and a pipe. He learns how to build a canoe, make bread, and endure endless solitude. That is, until, twenty-four years later, when he confronts another human being. First published in 1719, Robinson Crusoe has been praised by such writers as James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, and Samuel Johnson as one of the greatest novels in the English language.

"Robinson Crusoe falls most naturally into place, not with other novels, but with the great myths of Western civilization, with Faust, Don Juan, and Don Quixote"--Ian Watt
