About this listen

'It happen'd one Day about Noon going towards my Boat, I was exceedingly surpriz'd with the Print of a Man's naked Foot on the Shore.'

Shipwrecked in a storm at sea, Robinson Crusoe is washed up on a remote and desolate island. As he struggles to piece together a life for himself, Crusoe's physical, moral and spiritual values are tested to the limit. For 24 years he remains in solitude and learns to tame and master the island, until he finally comes across another human being. Considered a classic literary masterpiece, and frequently interpreted as a comment on the British Imperialist approach at the time, Defoe's fable was and still is revered as the very first English novel.

Critic reviews

"Martin Shaw convincingly recounts this story which, above all, describes the strength the human spirit can muster under desperate circumstances." ( Sunday Times)

An undying classic!

Beautifully written and narrated. I would have loved that it was a longer version of the book.
