A review by izzadorah
Moll Flanders by Daniel Defoe
slow-paced
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
3.0
I appreciated seeing the hardships a woman could have in the 17th century, but it did drag with how many troublesome adventures were included. We watch Moll Flanders constantly in danger during her thieving years, I think cutting the examples to a third or less would've still given the same effect, they felt very repetitive. An interesting read, just not super great.
Moderate: Incest and Abandonment
Minor: Child death, Death, and Death of parent
