Det er virkelig lykkedes Daniel Defoe med Robinson Crusoe og nu Moll Flanders at skrive to "romaner" med yderst vellykkede, særdeles kønsstereotype karakterer. Forudsat at man anerkender Moll Flanders som kønsstereotyp med al sin charmerende adfærd præget af bedrageri, tyveri og kvindelist :-)

Og så må man i øvrigt bare konstatere, at i 1722 er barndommen, eller barnets værdi, endnu ikke anerkendt! Det er ikke mange ord og stort set ingen følelser, der ofres på de stakkels børn, der efterlades i Moll Flanders' kølvand!

Moll certainly had an interesting life! It would have been easier to read with chapters and shorter sentences.

I really struggled with this book, particularly the language. I wanted to enjoy it, as the plot itself is all types of over the top dramatic, but the Ye Olde Time Language threw me. In saying that, I'm also trying to avoid reading books that I dislike, so after roughing it for half the book, I finally laid it aside. I'm sure I missed out on a lot of fun plot and events, but... well, no need to deal with unpleasantness, yeah?

I made it to p200 and just couldn't muster the necessary effort to get to the end, which is a shame.

Too slow and hard to read, plot wasn’t interesting enough to get past dense writing
