Robinson Crusoe
by Daniel Defoe
Translated by Samuli Suomalainen
"Robinson Crusoe" by Daniel Defoe is an English adventure novel first published in 1719. After ignoring his parents' wishes, young Robinson Crusoe embarks on a sea voyage that ends in catastrophe. Cast away on a remote tropical island, he survives alone for 28 years, building shelter, hunting, and farming. His solitary existence is shattered when he discovers cannibals visiting his island. When a prisoner escapes, Crusoe saves him, naming him Friday. Together, they face arriving dangers and await possible rescue.
