«Foe» is the contemporary fiction novel by J. M. Coetzee, published by Edicions 62 in paperback (144 pages, in Catalan).
Susan Barton, survivor of a shipwreck, arrives on a desert island with Cruso and Friday. After being rescued, she asks the writer Daniel Foe to tell her story, but her version of events diverges from the known one. Coetzee recreates the fable of Robinson Crusoe to reflect on literature, solitude, originality and plagiarism.
