Memoirs of Fanny Hill: A New and Genuine Edition from the Original Text (London, 1749)

Description

This controversial 1749 novel pioneered the psychological depth and sensual frankness that modern literature would later embrace, following a woman's journey through 18th-century society with unflinching honesty about desire and survival. The work's prohibition made it legendary long before most readers could actually read it.
