Well throughout both passages the characters in them are affected by the setting by how their mind starts to wonder about how they are lost, and all the characters take how the setting is affecting them differently. In “From The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe” By Daniel Defoe. Robinson Crusoe is a very pessimistic sea wash up cast away on a deserted island.
