In chapter twelve, the author tells us about a retreat center that Crusoe built in a valley that he discovered while traveling the island. Unlike the first refuge he built when he arrived on the island, this retreat center was intended for relaxation. The author attempts to show how Crusoe's attitude towards the island has changed since his arrival. In a place that was considered a place of sadness and despair, there can now be leisure and pleasure. PERSONAL ANALYSIS OF THE NOVEL “Robinson Crusoe is a story told with modesty, seriousness and religious application of the events” (Defoe 7). The writer used the main character of the novel, Crusoe, as the narrator. This allowed the reader to truly feel the situation and identify with it since no emotion is lost in translation. The reader can also get a direct glimpse of the character's efforts and struggles through the novel. It seems, however, that the author has truly immortalized the character through the many wrecks and trials he has survived, almost on a fictional level. He survives shipwrecks, slavery, cannibals and even fights with wolves. Not having been in contact with humans and society for more than twenty-eight years is, however, an arduous task for the author. It shows, however, that a man's greatest prison is himself. Crusoe overcomes the loneliness of living alone and becomes comfortable with the situation.
