Paul Ataua's Reviews > Moll Flanders

Daniel Defoe’s 18th century novel dealing with the ups and downs in the life of Moll Flanders, both lady and prostitute. I have been meaning to read this since forever, feeling as I did that while it might be an important literary piece, it was going to be a slow and painful read. In the end, I was surprised how modern it felt, how witty, and how perceptive. Surprisingly good! I may have to procure a copy of Robinson Crusoe next.
