About This Novel
"Robinson Crusoe" is a well-known realistic memoir-style adventure novel. It was written by Defoe, a famous British writer in the 18th century, who was inspired by the experience of a Scottish sailor who was in danger at sea. In the book, Defoe creates a new type of character who has the courage to face the challenges of nature - Robinson Crusoe. He disdained the status quo and devoted himself to pioneering, abandoning his well-off family again and again to go to sea and explore the world. After being shipwrecked and stranded on a desert island, he used his mind and hands to build a residence, grow food, domesticate livestock, make utensils, sew clothes, and transform the desert island into a "paradise". He adventured overseas for many years and went through untold hardships. Finally, he gained considerable wealth and returned to England, completing the entrepreneurial journey of a hero of an era.
