Overview
Considered by many to mark the advent of the English novel, Daniel Defoe's ROBINSON CRUSOE is almost certainly the most enduring long fiction in the language. Published in 1719, it was an immediate success. Its realistic, narrative style (a major innovation in its time) makes the novel as readable today as when first introduced. The story has become familiar to all. A sailor finds himself a castaway on a deserted island of the Americas. He must create a place of shelter and every article of clothing, every tool he needs in order to survive. He must endure his loneliness and prepare to face uncertain challenges. Daniel Defoe began his career as a novelist late in life, having endured a tumultuous past, including imprisonment for his political writings. Among the novels that followed ROBINSON CRUSOE are A JOURNAL OF THE PLAGUE YEAR and MOLL FLANDERS.
