I think it's important to read Robinson Crusoe prior to reading Foe. Not only because of the deeper understanding of the myth itself but also to be able to understand the tone of "Foe" represented in its long monologues.
Nicholas Munoz
No not from my perspective. This book aims to erase the conception of the authorial figure. Read the book for what the text presents to you.
Jessica Bz
Yes. More enjoyment and deeper reading.
Isabel J
Yeah, cause then the jokes are funny.
