Is your curiosity piqued when someone tells you you shouldn't or can't read a book? Mine is - I always want to know what it is that they don't want me to know. If you're curious what the fuss is all about, join me on Scandalous Books. We'll look at the history of censorship, what the censors hope to gain (or protect) by keeping certain books under wraps, and more.

Moll Flanders' many adventures

Join me to learn about one of the most engaging criminal narrators you're ever likely to come across - Moll Flanders. Through multiple marriages (one to her brother and a few that overlap), she keeps her spirits up in a world that sometimes seems set against her. She always finds a way to triumph - though her methods are often unorthodox (prostitution, theft, etc.).

***************************

Content note: this episode involves discussions of sex, adultery, prostitution, bigamy, incest, capital punishment, and crime (mostly theft).
