O homem mais azarado e sortudo da história
Robinson Crusoé se mostra uma obra ao mesmo tempo intrigante e apaixonante. Aventuras das mais diversas são relatadas ao longo da obra, sendo a sua vida como o náufrago a aventura principal, onde redescobre uma maneira de viver e de pensar. A edição em questão conta com uma tradução EXCELENTE, apoiada em comentários interessantíssimos nas notas de roda-pé. Além disso, ainda conta-se com uma breve biografia do autor. Indicável a todas as idades.

I could give this a long review but I won't. Wanna know why? Because I have little to no thoughts on this. I WAS BORED OKAY. Crusoe's relationship with God and the fact that he was an unreliable narrator/vessel for 18th century British war propaganda was fine and interesting, but goober almighty I actually don't care that he grew grapes on an island and they tasted sour. would rather rewatch Halloween Kills in an empty theatre in handcuffs then read this again
I appreciate what it’s done for the literary canon but it is dense

The book did not age well at all!!
Decent storyline, but way overly detailed. And the abhorrent white supremacy and narcissism was really hard to look past.

Really, really flat-out bad.
It's unfortunate that this is one of the oldest surviving English stories. The protagonist has little to no redeeming qualities, had survival handed to him on a silver platter - he had a servant and all the shipwreck's supplies, for god's sake - and more than half the book is a tedious pro/con list about what he should and should not do.
There's next to no emphasis on plot, and the whole book is just plain and preachy, with next to no actual emotion in it. The only thing shown in this book are Robinson's piety, luck and racism. I know we shouldn't look at ild books using modern morals, but I was painfully, painfully bored.
I would overlook the colonial overtones if there was anything else in the story to look at, but honestly? I hate this book more than I hate A Court Of Thorns And Roses.
