    Elizabeth Bishop, ‘Crusoe in England’. (LINK) "This dramatic monologue imagines Robinson Crusoe looking back on his life, after he’s been rescued from his island and has returned to England as an older man. What does Defoe’s character have left, after his life of adventure and toil? The poem is an interesting example of a female poet taking on a male character’s persona and re-examining it: the Crusoe we encounter is altogether more modern and introspective than the depiction in Defoe’s novel over two centuries before."
