Jai slow a little to make the comment but the book deserves BE read. First of all we think over the destiny of a Robinson. A sailor remains a unexplored side of Australias nineteenth century after being abandoned by his Ship. This starts as a survival book and the sailor made contact with a tribe to the primitive way of life in the sense in search of livelihood. We find some 17 years later, I think. By chance it is retrieved by a English ship whose captain saw lon was dealing with a wild white. He no longer speaks his native language if the dialect of his tribe, adopted a completely primitive behavior. He recalls of what it was before. He was 18 when he was dropped on this desert coast. We see from this moment his slow process of re-socialization under the tutelage of another character whose first quest will be to find her identity, her back to her family laccepter wrong and try to rebuild it on an imperfect fashion necessarily. Until his 2nd start, we do not know where. This story questions the manners and customs of Western society of the times. This is of course a failure because the white wild can not speak to step back compared to what he has experienced because we understand that this is too remote from our space-time. Conversely, it can not reintegrate because what he has lived scored. He also became a father, and could have lost in these children. The end of the novel is interesting. His rescuer understood that his mission was a failure, it makes unknowingly anthropology are the bases
