Journal Entry 1 by Firestarter from Woodbridge, Suffolk United Kingdom on Tuesday, September 20, 2005
"Considered one of the great English novels, Defoe's book follows Moll Flanders as she struggles to avoid the deadly poverty of 17th-century England. From a prison-birth to final prosperity, Moll reckons love, theft and prostitution in terms of profit and loss and emerges as an extraordinary character.
This vivid saga of an irresistible and notorious heroine - her high misdemeanors and delinquencies, her varied careers as a prostitute, a charming and faithful wife, a thief, and a convict - endures today as one of the liveliest, most candid records of a woman's progress through the hypercritical labyrinth of society ever recorded." from http://www.online-literature.com/defoe/moll_flanders/
I have had this book on my shelf for about 8 years and only read about a third of it. Was gonna give it another go but couldn't face it so am letting it roam free to find a more appreciative reader!!
