Moll Flanders
Details: Unabridged
ISBN: 078610824X
Category: Classics, Fiction, Classic British Literature
Keywords: Newgate Prison, orphan, poverty, thief, prostitute, bigamy, profit, 18th century, 1700s, Robinson Crusoe, English novel, Moll, Flanders
Author: Daniel Defoe
Publisher: Blackstone Audiobooks
Length: 11 hours and 41 min.

Description
One of the earliest novels in English, Moll Flanders is the purported autobiography of a heroine who is undoubtedly one of the most lively, convincing, and delightful rogues in literature. Born in Newgate Prison and orphaned soon after, Moll is provided with no opportunities in life, yet she is propelled by an unrelenting drive to overcome her background of impoverishment. Donning whatever mask suits her best in the moment, she appraises theft, prostitution, and bigamy only in terms of their profit potential. From her birth to her final position of wealth, Moll Flanders demonstrates a spirit of industry and an indomitable will. Praised by Virginia Woolf as one of the "few English novels which we can call indisputably great", Moll Flanders is a work of genius which represents an important step in the evolution of the novel.

ISBN: 0786113464
Category: Mysteries, Thrillers, Historical, Suspense
Keywords: W.C. Fields, Lester O. Hipnoodle, thief, bankbooks, deposits, accounts, clues, Fatal, Glass, Beer
Author: Stuart M. Kaminsky
Publisher: Blackstone Audiobooks
Length: 7 hours and 56 min.

Description
W.C. Fields may be Hollywood's reigning jester, but he's no fool. For 40 years he's cached over a million dollars of his lucre under assumed names in dozens of banks all over the country. But now a man who calls himself Lester O. Hipnoodle, a public menace with a mysterious score to settle, has somehow lifted the great man's bankbooks and roams the nation, cleaning out Fields' deposits. As Toby Peters, the private eye to the stars, and Fields pursue their quarry, Hipnoodle taunts them with tantalizing clues and harries them with the occasional bullet. The ugly specter of the Ku Klux Klan and the immortal profile of John Barrymore cast their enigmatic shadows across their path. Then an additional, mysterious desperado lights on their tail, whose interest lies not in grabbing Fields' fortune but in canceling his, and Toby's, accounts. Permanently.
