Step into an audio-cabinet of curiosities, where the works of Daniel Defoe are read in their full measure, without haste or abridgment. Each episode presents a faithful narration, as though a traveller’s journal opened by candlelight - tales of shipwreck and survival, of commerce, conscience, and the restless spirit of adventure.

Designed for listeners who favour patience over noise, this podcast invites you to keep company with rogues, merchants, and solitary islanders, hearing every page as it might have been spoken in a London coffee-house of old.Public domain Giornaliero

    In which the author explores the curious history and nature of divination, sorcery, and various pretended dealings with the Devil, illustrating how human folly and ignorance have often attributed every marvel and mystery to infernal agencies.
