Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure (popularly known as Fanny Hill) is an erotic novel by English novelist John Cleland first published in London in 1748. Written while the author was in debtors' prison in London, it is considered "the first original English prose pornography, and the first pornography to use the form of the novel". It is one of the most prosecuted and banned books in history. There is a critical edition by Peter Sabor, which has a select bibliography and detailed explanatory notes. The collection `Launching "Fanny Hill"' contains several essays on the historical, social and economic themes underlying the novel.
