Treasure Island جزیره گنج
Treasure Island جزیره گنج The plot is set in the mid-18th century, when an old sailor who identifies himself as
“The Captain” starts to lodge at the rural Admiral Benbow Inn on England’s Bristol Channel. He tells the
innkeeper’s son, Jim Hawkins, to keep a lookout for “a one-legged seafaring man”. A sailor named Black Dog
recognizes the captain as his former shipmate Billy Bones, and confronts him. They get into a violent swordfight;
Black Dog flees, and Bones suffers a stroke. That night, Jim’s father dies suddenly. A few days later, a blind
beggar named Pew visits the inn, delivering a summons to Bones called “the black spot”. Shortly thereafter,
Bones suffers another stroke and dies. Pew and his accomplices attack the inn but are routed by mounted excise
officers, and Pew is trampled to death by one of their horses. Jim and his mother escape with a mysterious
packet from Bones’ sea chest, which is found to contain a map of the island on which the infamous
pirate Captain Flint hid his treasure. Jim shows the map to the local physician Dr. Livesey and the squire John
Trelawney, and they decide to make an expedition to the island, with Jim serving as a cabin boy.
توضیحات کلی
They set sail on Trelawney’s schooner, the Hispaniola, under Captain Smollett. Jim forms a strong bond with the
ship’s one-legged cook, Long John Silver. The crew suffers a tragedy when first mate Mr. Arrow, a drunkard, is
washed overboard during a storm. While hidden in an apple barrel, Jim overhears a conversation among the
Hispaniola’s crew which reveals that many of them are pirates who had served on Captain Flint’s ship,
the Walrus, with Silver leading them. They plan to mutiny after the salvage of the treasure, and to murder the
captain and the few remaining loyal crew. Jim secretly informs Smollet, Trelawney, and Livesey.
