Strange Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe”.
Text:
Daniel Defoe (1660-1731) was a famous English writer of the eighteenth
century. He wrote his world famous novel “The life and Strange Surprising
Adventures of Robinson Crusoe” when he was nearly 60 years old.
The story of Robinson Crusoe was based on the real adventures of a sailor
called Alexander Selkirk, who has lived alone for four years on a desert island.
The book, however, also contains a lot of incidents from the author
imagination.
When the book was published in 1719, it immediately became popular. Defoe
made his story so realistic that everyone believed it.
Defoe didn’t write his book for children. But every child now knows “Robinson
Crusoe”, how he learned to catch goats and to make pots, how he made an
umbrella and had hundreds of adventures.
Daniel Defoe wrote many other books, but for “Robinson Crusoe” he is called
“the father of English prose”.
