Fanny Hill (1748-1749) is considered one of the classics of universal erotic literature. A few months after its publication, this novel was banned for immorality, its author, John Cleland, and his editor were convicted, and he was the protagonist of the first book trial for obscenity in Massachusetts, United States, in 1821, in which, among others, epithets, poor Fanny was described as "possessed by the devil because she incited the citizens to lustful thoughts." In 1960, moral action groups burned copies in England and Japan. In Spain, Fanny Hill did not see the light of day until 1977. The novel tells the story of an innocent village girl, Fanny, who as soon as she arrives in London is forced to work in a brothel. She falls in love with Charles, a handsome and well-endowed beau, with whom she will live happily for several weeks before he mysteriously disappears. From then on, Fanny will assume her career as a prostitute with all the consequences, without showing any regret or sorrow, rather highlighting the advantages of the profession that end up taking her from lover to lover to an enviable and healthy position; In the end, Charles will reappear and they will get married. With this story, Cleland contravened numerous norms, among others, those of the novels of the time, which condemned prostitutes to misery. Faced with the sordid reality of London prostitution at that time, she left aside every detail of bad taste and laughed at Christian customs, since the novel is the "confession" of a woman who never renounced her previous life.
