Book summary

The only survivor of a shipwreck, Robinson Crusoe is washed up on a desert island. With what he saves from the wreck, he builds a shelter, learns to grow grain and keep goats, and counts the days by cutting notches in a post. One day, after years alone, he finds the print of a bare foot on the beach.

It is the first great survival novel, the one that inspired every castaway story since, and the name of Friday has become as famous as Robinson's.

Robinson tells his own adventure, like a diary, and the novel is easy to read in the language you are learning.

The plot

荒島上的赤腳腳印。英國人魯賓遜·克魯索在一場船難中倖存,已在島上獨自生活了十五年。一天中午前後,他在沙灘上發現了一個赤腳的腳印。他側耳傾聽,四下張望,又爬上一座小山。他誰也沒看見,也再沒找到別的腳印。
