About John Cleland

John Cleland (1709-1789) was an English novelist known for The Dictionary of Love (1753), The Woman of Honour (1768), and most famously his fictional Fanny Hill: or, the Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure (1749) whose eroticism led to his arrest. James Boswell called him "a sly, old malcontent." Chelsea G. Summers is a former academic and college professor with Ph.D. training in eighteenth-century British literature. A freelance writer, Chelsea's work has appeared in New York Magazine, Vogue, The New Republic, Racked, The Guardian, and other fine publications. She splits her time between New York and Stockholm, Sweden. A Certain Hunger was her first novel. Jessica Stoya has been a pornographer since 2006 and a writer since 2012. She has written for the New York Times, the Guardian, Playboy, and others. She has acted in Serbian sci-fi feature Ederlezi Rising and two of Dean Haspiel's plays in Brooklyn and Manhattan. She lives in Los Angeles.
