| Annotation | The first section of the novel is a Robinsonade in which a shipwrecked sailor uses the material from the ship (rather more extensive and luxurious than in the 1719 Defoe original) to create a home for himself on an isolated island. He then rescues a small group of people of a lost race who, in the classic lost race scenario, had been expelled from their island by an evil prince. Then he conquers the island they had come from, is established as a god-king, and plans to create an empire. |
