"Foe" by J.M. Coetzee is a reimagining of Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe." In "Foe," Coetzee explores themes of power, language, and narrative through a retelling of the Crusoe story from a different perspective, focusing on the character Susan Barton who challenges traditional storytelling conventions. The novel prompts readers to reflect on the colonialist undertones of the original story and raises questions about representation and authorship.
