It happened one day, about noon, going towards my boat, I was exceedingly surprised with the print of a mans naked foot on the shore...
Thus Defoe describes the heart-stopping moment when
- after years of solitude
- the worlds most famous shipwrecked mariner discovers that he is not totally alone on his isl&.
Although the inspiration came from a real-life castaway called Alexander Selkirk, the novel can be enjoyed as a tale of survival, of spiritual awakening, or as a mythic quest.
