Robinson Crusoe
Published in 1719, Daniel Defoe's *Robinson Crusoe* is often regarded as the first English novel. It tells the story of Robinson Crusoe, a mariner who survives a shipwreck and is stranded on a deserted island for over two decades. The narrative is inspired by the real-life experiences of castaway Alexander Selkirk and explores themes of survival, self-sufficiency, and companionship, particularly in Crusoe's relationship with Friday, another survivor. The novel has remained popular for its portrayal of ingenuity and resilience in the face of isolation.
