Best of the Defoe novels. Always takes me forever to read, but it's important to my scholaring. The lack of clear timeline or chapters is a challenge, even for those of us who study this stuff.
Graphic: Abandonment
Moderate: Mental illness, Panic attacks/disorders, Pregnancy, and Cultural appropriation
Minor: Sexual assault, Infidelity, Rape, Stalking, Child death, and Murder
