Abandoned at six months old, Moll has no option but touse her considerable wit and looks to make her way in a world where mercy is given to the unadaptable. As a woman her options are limited and Moll embarks on a rollicking career of incest, bigamy and crime. Five times married, a whore and a thief, her business is survival - and survive she does, both a prisoner and manipulator of her circumstances, whose timely spiritual regeneration in prison is, she tells us, 'the best part of the story'.
