 A worth read March 16, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If able to conquer the cold, unfeeling person that Robinson Crusoe is, you may find this book an enjoyable read. However, i personally was unable to get past this milestone, and found that a little emotion in Robinson's life could have made this a good novel. Nevertheless, a good plot made this book a worthy read, that although not recommendable, deserves some respect.
 Lots To Read But Not Much to Enjoy March 6, 2008
1 out of 4 found this review helpful
Robinson Crusoe has one really appealing story line but not such an appealing writing style. Defoe writes as if you are being told the story by another huuman being. The writing contains about as much emotion as a supervisor at an airport's passport control. It is pact with facts and this is all well and godd but i personally find that without emotion the facts mean nothing to me. This book was written in the time of science annd facts and this becomes obvious the moment you pick the book up. Robinson Crusoe is a long frustrating read which offers no enjoyment to the reader. I would recommend however that if you have to do a coursework piece or an essay then pick this book because the language is not pleasant to read but is extreemly interesting which gives you alot to write about. In conclusion if you are looking for something to read which you want to stir any emotion apart from frustration then stay well away from this book! By Matt C
