In the evening of September 29, 1759, a cargo ship runs aground and is wrecked in a violent storm. There is only one survivor, a young Englishman travelling to South America to seek his fortune. His name? Robinson Crusoe. This is the ultimate "desert island" story - a tale of one man's struggle to survive on an untamed island. It is a tale of ingenuity and endurance, as Robinson tries to establish himself as ruler of his natural surroundings. The story has been told and retold many times, but here Michel Tournier offers a entirely new version. At its heart is the relationship between Robinson and the Indian he rescues, Friday. The two begin conventionally enough, as master and slave, but the roles are to shift dramatically...

Michel Tournier is a highly respected journalist, broadcaster and author of countless books for adults and children. His first novel, Friday, was published to international critical acclaim and won the Grand Prix du Roman of the Academie Francaise. After the success of this adult version of the classic Robinson Crusoe tale, M. Tournier decided to share his research and enthusiasm for the story with younger readers, and Friday and Robinson was an immediate success when it was first published in 1971. Now a cult classic, it still sells over 100,000 copies a year in France alone. The author's second adult novel, Le Roi des Aulnes, was the first book ever to be the unanimous winner of the Prix Goncourt, France's most prestigious literary award. Michel Tournier lives in France.
