This book is filled with drama and at times is difficult to read. I studied this for uni and have to say it was one of my least favourite books on the course. I have things to say on the plot and form.
Form: there are no chapter divisions since Defoe is characterised as the one who begun the novel therefore it is difficult to read since there is a continuous illustration, with no where to put your book mark. While the story is flow paced, everything bad happens to Moll- I suggest reading this in one day like I did to not loose anything about the plot due to it’s different form to todays standards.
The plot: full of drama, tension and trauma. the main character goes through so much, it almost feels like the character is a toy to a unscrupulous plot. it is character driven but if you read it, it seems likes the plot controls the character is a way which is traumatic.
