"Moll Flanders" or The Survival of a 18th Century-Woman

This is a literary journey without borders. Each episode I explore a work, an author or a literary movement from different corners of the planet. Because books are also passports, and each story brings us closer to different cultures, languages and realities."Moll Flanders" is a picaresque novel written by Daniel Defoe in 1722. The story tells the life of Moll, a woman born in Newgate Prison, which means she is "marked" for life to lead a life of crime, the same one poor women were destined for.
