“It is never too late to be wise.”
― Daniel Defoe, Robinson Crusoe
“One of the most beautiful travel books in
figures of the eighteenth century" (Gumuchian)
Called the original adventure novel, Robinson Crusoe was originally
published in 1719 and depicts the life of a castaway who learns to survive on
an island for decades. However, while it saw substantial success with the
masses, there were still those that were not impressed. Charles Dickens said,
“...Robinson Crusoe should be the
only instance of a universally popular book that could make no one laugh and
could make no one cry.”
