About this listen

 Young Robinson Crusoe has a burning ambition to be a sailor. Paying no attention to his parents’ warnings he runs away to sea to embark on a series of thrilling adventures: struggles with Barbary pirates, a shipwreck and the extraordinary meeting with Man Friday... Roy Marsden plays the older Robinson Crusoe looking back on a life of recklessness, daring and adventure – and the survival of twenty-eight years, two months and nineteen days on a desert island. Based on the real-life adventures of Alexander Selkirk, Robinson Crusoe was one of the very first adventure stories to be published in English literature. It remains as gripping today as it did on first publication in 1719, and this enthralling dramatisation perfectly evokes the excitement and adventure of the original book.©2008 BBC Audiobooks Ltd; (P)1999 BBC Audiobooks Ltd Action & Adventure Classics Entertainment & Performing Arts Genre Fiction Literary Fiction Sea Adventures

Crusoe still carries a punch.

An excellent dramatised adaptation of Robinson Crusoe. Not only for the young, but for adults as well. An entertaining listen!

... Crusoe!!..

I remember reading this as a child as being so in awed of the adventures. This reading is just full of nonsensical religious commentary. The are much better readings of this classic, disappointing, especially as it is a BBC dramatisation. They are normally excellent.

Not the book as I remember it
