概要

 Step into an audio-cabinet of curiosities, where the works of Daniel Defoe are read in their full measure, without haste or abridgment. Each episode presents a faithful narration, as though a traveller’s journal opened by candlelight - tales of shipwreck and survival, of commerce, conscience, and the restless spirit of adventure.

Designed for listeners who favour patience over noise, this podcast invites you to keep company with rogues, merchants, and solitary islanders, hearing every page as it might have been spoken in a London coffee-house of old.Public domain

    In which I find myself overwhelmed by the dreadful prospect of a death sentence, only to be moved toward a sincere repentance through the kind ministrations of a good man, amidst the sorrowful company of fellow prisoners and the ministrations of my afflicted governess. The narrative further reveals my narrow escape from execution to a sentence of transportation, and a poignant, secret meeting with my Lancashire husband in the prison’s press-yard, where our shared misfortunes unfold in subdued conversation.
