Description

Moll Flanders, a pioneering social novel, tells the story of its eponymous heroine's life, marked by her early seduction, various careers in crime and prostitution, and her eventual redemption in the New World. The novel explores the social conditions of late 17th-century London, drawing heavily on the author's own experiences.

Written by Daniel Defoe, this 1993 edition is the first of its kind, offering a unique insight into the lives of women in 17th-century England. With an introduction and notes by R.T.Jones, this edition provides a valuable context for understanding the historical context and themes of the novel.

With its thought-provoking portrayal of crime, redemption, and social change, Moll Flanders remains a compelling read for those interested in historical fiction and the lives of women in the past.
