Historia
When mariner Robinson Crusoe sails from London to the African coast to Brazil, his unpredictable voyage takes a catastrophic course. The lone survivor of a shipwreck, he washes ashore on an Atlantic island. Resourceful and determined to contend with providence and nature, he finds his sovereignty empowering. Through the years he builds a civilization as a solitary man. Then he discovers a stranger’s footprint in the sand.

Decent for its time, tedious now
Revisado: 11-12-21
Robinson Crusoe may well be one of the earliest popular "survival" stories, and I admit I enjoyed hearing the entire story. So many abbreviated versions cut it off at his departure from the island.
The reader was excellent, and his voice fit the character well.
My disappointment stems from the tedious nature of the story itself. For its time, in a world focused on direct characterization and clear and obvious content, it was quite good. Now, it reads as tedious and slow paced. I love a good, slow-building plot, but this was a bridge too far.
