The narrative of 'Moll Flanders' shows us that identify doubts the truth of her confesion. There is more repenting: Jemmy's repenting as well as the gentleman of Bath's. From being a child she acts without malice but she learns, with her 5th lover, the eldest brother how to get favours from people. The structure of Defoe's work is a sequence of obstacles her marriages a long the way to improve her social possition, obtain a husband, etc. and the criminal activities to obtain stability without sex. There is doubt because of her lies, and she has a problem: how to assimilate her past with her present. (An Outline of English Literature. Edited by Pat Rogers. Oxford University Press).
