A novel written in the early 18th century. The story follows the journey of Robinson Crusoe, a man who is shipwrecked on a deserted island where he must learn to survive and navigate the challenges of isolation and the wilderness. The opening of the book introduces us to Robinson Crusoe's early life and his yearning for adventure at sea. He expresses a deep desire to escape his mundane existence, leading him to leave home and board a ship. However, his travels take a turn when a fierce storm causes the ship to sink, and he ultimately becomes a captive of pirates. Crusoe's resilience and ingenuity become apparent as he adapts to his new circumstances, providing a glimpse into the themes of survival and self-discovery that will unfold as the story progresses.
