Written in a time when criminal biographies enjoyed great success, Daniel Defoe’s ‘Moll Flanders’ details the life of the irresistible Moll and her struggles through poverty and sin in search of property and power.

The story of Moll Flanders vividly illustrates Defoe’s themes of social mobility and predestination, sin, redemption and reward. Acabamento: Paperback. Peso: 607g. Dimensões: 23 x 16 x 1.
