Written while Cleland was imprisoned for debt, it follows the experiences of a woman of pleasure through elaborate euphemisms and literary devices, avoiding explicit terminology. Considered the first original English prose pornography in novel form, it became one of history's most prosecuted books, sparking obscenity trials across centuries in Britain and America before landmark court rulings eventually permitted its publication.
