This book popularised the picaresque genre in Britain. It was subject to severe censorship due to its depictions of gender, poverty, and incest.

This will be the beginning of a thrilling adventure where Moll, cunning and witty, will use her womanly charms to gain more power and scale the socioeconomic ladder by finding wealthier and wealthier husbands. How will she fare? Will she ever repent? You will have to read the book to find out!
