"Enoch Arden, &c." by Baron Alfred Tennyson Tennyson is a narrative poem published in 1864. A fisherman-turned-sailor leaves his wife Annie and children to earn a better living at sea, but becomes shipwrecked on a desert island for over eleven years. When he finally returns home, he discovers Annie has remarried his childhood friend and started a new family. Faced with an impossible choice, Enoch must decide whether to reclaim his old life or sacrifice his own happiness for those he loves. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
