Robinson Crusoe

Robinson Crusoe tells the story of Robinson, a survivor of a shipwreck, who spends 28 years on a remote and desolate tropical island. The main character, Robinson Crusoe, was born into a middle-class family, and his life ambition is to travel on voyages for discovery. Once on a voyage to Africa, he encounters a storm and drifts to a deserted island, where he begins a life of isolation. Robinson rescued a fugitive cannibal boy called Friday. As the two people spend time together, they developed into a father-and-friend friendship. This friendship, which is missing in the civilized world, becomes the spiritual pillar of Robinson's later life on the desert island for more than 20 years. Life on the island is completely free. The island is an independent space away from the hustle and bustle, and from industrial civilization. Robinson's experience on the island represents the dream in people's hearts that with their own hands, they too can create their ideal paradise on earth.

At the end of the nineteenth century, no other book in Western literature had more editions, derivatives, and translations than Robinson Crusoe, which even had more than 700 adaptations.
