Memoirs of an Oxford Scholar

Exploring the themes of desire and societal constraints, this previously suppressed work by John Cleland offers a bold narrative that contrasts with his more famous titles. Unlike Fanny Hill and its sequel, Memoirs of a Coxcomb, this novel has remained largely hidden from readers until now. This edition aims to highlight the significance of Memoirs of an Oxford Scholar, showcasing Cleland's talent and the provocative nature of his writing, enriching the understanding of his literary contributions.
