Le avventure di Robinson sono ormai un mito... Certo, si nota il peso dello stile scritturistico dell'ottocento, ma cmq è una storia piacevole, anche se spesso l'autore si sofferma molto a lungo su argomenti anche noiosi... Cmq recupera nella trama, per niente scontata. Lo consiglio a chi ama il mare e le isole deserte...

I can identify with some of poor Robin's experience though thankfully I'm not quite as alone as he was. Full of spiritual musings that I really enjoyed but also some rampant racism and eugenicism that I understand was the norm at the time but still hard to read. The last bit about traveling in the snow seemed bizarre and disconnected from the rest of the story, and I never knew there was a sequel until now. I thought for some reason that Friday was missing a toe - where did I get that idea? All in all this story is full of reminders to look for the good in all situations and give up fear. Jerk move to leave the Spaniards though.

Fear of danger is ten thousand times more terrifying than danger itself.
