Moll Flanders was a novel by Daniel Defoe that was published in 1721. Just like his first novel Robinson Crusoe, Daniel Defoe presented this novel as an autobiography, a truthful account told in first person narrative. Daniel Defoe tried to depict the story of Moll Flanders as her spiritual biography detailing her exploits from birth until old age. The full title of the novel is "The Fortunes and Misfortunes of the Famous Moll Flanders, Etc.
