"1001 Bücher, die Sie lesen sollten, bevor das Leben vorbei ist"

Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure, commonly known as Fanny Hill, has been shrouded in mystery and controversy since John Cleland completed it in 1749. The Bishop of London called the work 'an open insult upon Religion and good manners' and James Boswell referred to it as 'a most licentious and inflaming book'.The story of a prostitute's rise to respectability, it has been recognized more recently as a unique combination of parody, sensual entertainment and a philosophical concept of sexuality borrowed from French libertine novels.Modern readers will appreciate it not only as an important contribution to revolutionary thought in the Age of Enlightenment, but also as a thoroughly entertaining and important work of erotic fiction, deserving of a place in the history of the English novel beside Richardson, Fielding and Smollett.

Reist im Januar mit der Box - Not by myself - mit.

Kam mit der [BOX] Not by myself bei mir an und reist in Kürze weiter nach Schwäbisch Hall.

Dort wartet jemand auf dieses Buch aus dem Buch der 1000 Bücher.

In den Postbriefkasten Altenbekener Damm vor der Eisdiele eingeworfen.

Das Buch reist per Büchersendung nach Schwäbisch Hall, einer Stadt im Nordosten des Landes Baden-Württemberg, etwa 37 km östlich von Heilbronn und 60 km nordöstlich von Stuttgart. Sie ist Kreissitz und größte Stadt des Landkreises Schwäbisch Hall und bildet ein Mittelzentrum.
Schwäbisch Hall liegt im schroff eingeschnittenen Kochertal an einer alten Salzquelle. Die neueren Stadtteile und eingemeindeten Orte erreichen zu beiden Seiten des Flusses die Hochfläche der Haller Ebene, die von den Höhen des Schwäbisch-Fränkischen Walds umgeben ist. Das Stadtgebiet hat Anteil an den Naturräumen Schwäbisch-Fränkische Waldberge, Kocher-Jagst-Ebenen und Hohenloher-Haller Ebene. (Wikipedia)

Hat heute in der Post auf mich gewartet. Vielen Dank fürs Schicken.

Phew, this book took me a long time to read because I could not really read a lot of it at one go. It was interesting to read and for its time it must have been quite a revelation.

The book will be sent off as a bookray as soon as I have the first address.

Book ring order is:

dutch-book
brunton
kiyoteefoxx

There are no special rules in this book ray except for normal courtesy. Please let me know how you like the book and enjoy reading it.

The book is off as a book ray to the next reader. Enjoy the book.

The book arrived today. Will be read soon.
Thanks for sending!

Just finished the book. Haven't enjoyed it very much, but I blame that on the time it has been written in, also on the english used. Sometimes I had to reread pages, because I didn't understand. Sentences are very long, and that makes it hard to follow. Hoewever, there were parts I enjoyed. Can't say which parts exactly (I don't mark them). However, I want to state the book wasn't a punishment. I just didn't really enjoy it.
I have brunton11's adress ready and the book will travel further this Monday.

Sent off today to brunton11. Enjoy!

Arrived on Wednesday - I have 3 books in front of this one so I had better get cracking!

This was an interesting book for it's time. One of the better 1001 books despite it's content :)

Waiting for an address from kiyoteefoxx - Once I have this I'll get this book in the post to them. Thanks again for sharing this book.

kiyoteefoxx has asked to be skipped so sending to shovelmonkey1 as a RABCK.

Thank you! This book arrived today complete with a very loverly Whoooooo's been reading my book bookmark with some very funky owls on it. Love it! A mixed selection of reviews to this classic so i shall look forward to reading it and making up my own mind! Thank you to brunton11 for sending this as a RABCK.

I'm currently reading this well travelled penguin classic which originally started its journey in Paris. It has been on my shelf for over a year so it is high time it was read and moved on.
