We yield to a stranger's embrace or give ourselves to the waves; for the blink of an eyelid our vigilance relaxes; we are asleep; and when we awake, we have lost the direction of our lives.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eIn this extraordinary novel J. M. Coetzee asks his readers to re-imagine Daniel Defoe's \u003ci\u003eRobinson Crusoe\u003c\/i\u003e. It is the early 1700s.
