Moll Flanders (Royal Collector's Edition) (Case Laminate Hardcover with Jacket)

About this book

Moll Flanders is born in Newgate Prison and raised by a kindly foster mother. Eventually she becomes a servant in a house where she first realises the effect she has on men. Greedy and ambitious, Moll decides to pursue only wealthy men. She bears many children, finds true love, and at one point becomes an accomplished thief. Moll will have to travel back to her roots in order to find redemption. Moll Flanders has been called a spiritual autobiography, which is defined as a genre of non-fiction prose that dominated Protestant writing during the seventeenth century, particularly in England. Books within this genre follow a pattern of shallow repentances, followed by a fall back into sin, and eventually culminating in a conversion experience that has a profound impact on the course of their life from that point.This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.
