		"I never told my religion nor scrutinize that of another. I never attempted to make a convert nor wished to change another's creed. I have judged of others' religion by their lives, for it is from our lives and not from our words that our religion must be read. By the same test must the world judge me." - Thomas Jefferson (1743 - 1826)

From The Publisher
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. Born in Newgate Prison to a picaresque mother, Moll propels herself through marriages, periods of success and destitution, and a trip to the New World and back, only to return to the place of her birth as a popular prostitute and brilliant thief. The story of Moll Flanders vividly illustrates Defoe's themes of social mobility and predestination, sin, redemption and reward.

Annotation
Moll Flanders is born in Newgate prison and abandoned six months later. Her drive to find a secure place in society propels her through incest, adultery, bigamy, prostitution, and a resourceful career as a thief, before she is returned to Newgate.

The Reader's Catalog
"It is most popularly thought of as a tale of thievery and prostitution, of crime, punishment and worldly success: a lively account of an attractive, independent and wicked woman who eventually makes good--both morally and economically. In fact Moll Flanders is throughout as much about financial investment as about theft, as much about marriage as about prostitution"--Juliet Mitchell
