Description

Jim Hawkings es un chico que trabaja en una posada, en la costa oeste de Inglaterra, en el siglo XVIII. Un viejo bucanero, Billy Bones, llega a la posada con un mapa que muestra dónde se esconde el tesoro del capitán Flint, pero es seguido de cerca por un grupo de piratas cobardes. Jim, en un acto de valentía y astucia, se apodera del mapa, se lo entrega al señor Trelawney y juntos parten hacia la isla del tesoro en la goleta La Hispaniola. Entre su tripulación, sin embargo, está el traidor John Silver, que quiere hacerse con el tesoro.

Una obra que ha sido fuente de inspiración en el cine, en la televisión, en la literatura, en cómics e incluso en videojuegos. Se trata de una novela que adopta un tono crítico y una reflexión moral del protagonista hacia el dinero y la ambición.

A great story, easy to understand despite the publication year.

Watch young Jim Hawkins grow as a character as he embarks on the adventure of a lifetime. If you fancy putting on your pirate hat, grabbing a bottle of rum and setting sail across the Seven Seas to the mysterious Treasure Island, then this is the book for you. This classic written by Robert Louis Stevenson is full of extraordinary characters, each one as different as the last. Their personalities are as interesting as the plot itself. When reading Treasure Island you really feel as though you're apart of the crew yourself. The dialogue flows and in your head you can hear the pirate twang. I think Captain Smollett was one of my favourite characters. He's a very wise man and has some of the best quotes by far in the book. It's definitely a classic to be kept alive. Treasure Island was first published in 1883. All this time has passed and it is still a brilliant book.
