If I read one more sentence about the damn goats I would have thrown the book across the room, hoping to see it burst into many pieces. Needless to say, I hated this book.

Think Castaway with theology. Incredibly interesting, love the things it has to say about the nature of prayer and inadvertently a good insight into the time. Apparently it’s racist, but I didn’t think so, he’s mostly just on an island praying for most of it
I liked the aspects of having to survive just by himself although it seemed a bit oversimplified at times. I did not care for the religious aspects or him interacting with others.
Still, I enjoyed it more than I expected to!

Um...well...I guess it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be? I thought it was going to be one of the most dull books I ever read and it wasn't *exactly* that. I mean I've read worse things.
Hm good things, good things...well, it did give me an interesting topic for my English essay. I thought there wasn't going to be anything interesting for me to talk about so that was nice. Although I haven't gotten my grade back on that paper yet so if I get a bad grade, it's your fault, Defoe.
*sigh* I just have trouble with these early 1700s English novels. They just...they don't know how to write books yet. And I guess that's not entirely their fault, but still it makes for some very dull frustrating reads.
Also, pacing? Never met her who is that?

Som altid er det en umulig opgave at tildele stjerner til en klassiker! Den fortjener jo alene pga sin status alverdens stjerner! Jeg mener - hvem kender ikke historien om Robinson Crusoe og hans øde ø?! Jeg kan ikke huske IKKE at have kendt historien, og jeg kan endnu mindre huske, HVORDAN jeg har lært den at kende... Det er godt nok imponerende!
Nå, men selve bogen er noget af en rodebutik, og ham Robinson er sådan set lidt en træls type :D Og muligvis har forfatteren ikke helt tænkt projektet igennem, for det viser sig at være vanskeligt at skabe en spændende fortælling ud af godt 27 år på en øde ø! 😅😬
Så helt ironisk er bogen ikke en af dem, jeg ville tage med på en øde ø - og alligevel er den uomgængelig og gør indtryk, og jeg har meget mere at sige om den, end der er plads til her! Bøger fra 1700-tallet kræver noget af sine læsere - men samtidig er de vildt spændende, fordi de reflekterer en brydningstid (f.eks. forholdet mellem videnskab og religion).
