The Classic of 19th French Century Erotica! Autobiography of a Flea contains, in abundance, all the elements of great 19th-century erotic literature: innocent maidens, unscrupulous clerics, wayward wives, and duped husbands. At the center is the story of innocent young Laurette Boischamp, condemned to wed the elderly old fool, Monsieur Claude Villiers, instead of his illegitimate son, who she truly loves. These are the ingredients that have made this classic French work of erotica so famous. Become a "fly on the wall" in the bedrooms and bordellos of Victorian era France.
