«Fanny Hill: Memorias de una mujer de placer» is the erotic novel by John Cleland, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (320 pages, in Spanish).
The novel is presented as the letters of Fanny Hill, a young Englishwoman of humble origin who justifies her actions to a stranger. After being orphaned and moving to London, she ends up in a brothel, where her experiences with different lovers gradually reveal to her the secrets of life and sex, in a narrative that combines sensuality with a moralistic fable.

Recommended for readers of classic and erotic literature interested in the eighteenth-century English novel.
