Book excerpt: "Moll Flanders" is a novel written by Daniel Defoe, first published in 1722. This engrossing tale is told in the form of a fictional autobiography chronicling the life and adventures of Moll, whose real name we never discover. Born to a convict mother in Newgate Prison, Moll's life unfolds as an unending series of ups and downs as she navigates through her tumultuous existence.The narrative spans over six decades and covers Moll's colorful journey from being an impoverished child to a respected middle-class matron. Along the way, she experiences numerous marriages (some bigamous), engaging in thievery, prostitution and eventually ending up surviving on her cunning alone. The book is set against the backdrop of London's seamy underworld, offering readers sharp insights into 18th century society.Defoe masterfully portrays Moll as an unapologetic character who uses wit, beauty and charm to manipulate her circumstances despite societal constraints. Her resilience amidst adversity becomes symbolic of human survival instinct."Moll Flanders" is not just about one woman's story but serves as a social commentary on class distinctions, economic realities, morality issues and gender roles during that era. It remains one of Defoe's most popular works due to its vivid characterization and exploration of universal themes like survival, redemption and perseverance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Moll Flanders is a novel by Daniel Defoe, first published in 1722. It purports to be the true account of the life of the eponymous Moll, detailing her exploits from birth until old age.By 1721, Defoe had become a recognised novelist, with the success of Robinson Crusoe in 1719. His political work was tapering off at this point, due to the fall of both Whig and Tory party leaders with whom he had been associated; Robert Walpole was beginning his rise, and Defoe was never fully at home with the Walpole group. Defoe's Whig views are nevertheless evident in the story of Moll, and the novel's full title gives some insight into this and the outline of the plot"

Download or read book Daniel Defoe written by Maximillian E. Novak and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 780 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daniel Defoe led an exciting and indeed precarious life. A provocative pamphleteer and journalist, a spy and double agent, a revolutionary and a dreamer, he was variously hunted by mobs with murderous intent and treated as a celebrity by the most powerful leaders of the country. Imprisoned many times, pilloried and reviled by his enemies, through it all he managed to produce some of the most significant literature of the eighteenth century. Daniel Defoe: Master of Fictions is the first biography to view Defoe's complex life through the angle of vision that is most important to us as modern readers--his career as a writer. Maximillian Novak, a leading authority on Defoe, ranges from the writer's earliest collection of brief stories, which he presented to his future wife under the sobriquet Bellmour, to his Compleat English Gentleman, left unpublished at his death. Novak illuminates such works as Robinson Crusoe and Moll Flanders, novels that changed the course of fiction in their time and have remained towering classics to this day. And he reveals a writer who was a superb observer of his times--an age of dramatic historical, political, and social change. Indeed, through his many pamphlets, newspapers, books of travel, and works of fiction, Defoe commented on everything from birth control to the price of coal, and from flying machines to the dangers of the plague. Beautifully and authoritatively written, this is the first serious, full-scale biography of Defoe to appear in a decade. It gives us, for the first time, a full understanding of the thought and personal experience that lie behind some of the great works of English literature.
